A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 392

"I am a sinner."

Aisia had to admit her mistakes.

Even though Enkrid shielded her and said nothing, what she had done couldn’t be ignored. Just because her brother was taken as a hostage didn’t mean her sins would disappear. She never believed that would be the case.

Everything was an excuse, a justification.

At least, that’s how Aisia saw it. She was a sinner.

That’s what she said, and this was Crang’s response.

"How about covering up the mistakes with merit? As I said, we're in a situation where we need even a cat’s paw."

He spoke casually, as if it didn’t matter.

Was it because of the urgency? Was it because of the situation? Crang’s demeanor, though, felt oddly nonchalant.

Did it mean that, in a critical time, anyone would do? No, that didn’t seem to be it. There was something like trust in him—towards her.

Could that be possible? Just half a day ago, he had stood with the ones who betrayed her.

She didn’t feel the gazes of the two marquises watching them.

Aisia’s mouth opened.

"Why do you trust me?"

Crang’s behavior didn’t make sense to her.

Was it because of the Red Cloak Knights? Was it truly because they were short-handed? Was it because of the remaining forces at the palace? Was it because she was a knight she had given?

Aisia looked at Crang, and he smiled softly as he looked back at her.

"I trust this friend’s eyes. That should be enough."

Crang raised his finger and pointed at someone. That was all.

The person being pointed at, the one called "this friend," was Enkrid.

"There’s a mountain of things to sort out. See you later."

Crang said only that and left. After he left, Enkrid asked.

"Should I set your nose straight?"

He didn’t seem to care at all about her betrayal.

"I already fixed it."

She answered while looking directly at Enkrid, thinking to herself.

‘Does he really know me?’

They had spent a short time together, but not long. She didn’t think he would know why she was here.

She didn’t want to express that she reluctantly stepped forward to protect her brother.

"See you later."
