When I woke up, Hern and Arsene had arrived at the mansion and were waiting for me.

 

I quickly went down and checked Arsene’s condition.

 

“Arsene! I’m glad you’re safe.” 

 

I cupped Arsene’s cheek with both hands and turned his face around to check for any injuries.

 

Arsene smiled slightly as if to reassure me, then lowered his head and whispered in my ear.

 

‘It’s thanks to the necklace.’

 

Arsene tapped his chest.

 

Only then did I look at the necklace hanging around Arsene’s neck.

 

It was a necklace that I made with my abilities.

 

‘The necklace did its job.’

 

As expected, it was good to use. 

 

After confirming that Arsene was safe, I turned to Mr. Hern. 

 

“Are you okay, Mr.? Are you in any pain?”

 

“I’m fine, Lady. But I have something to tell you.” 

 

Mr. Hern said it with a rather grim look.

 

I nodded as if telling him to speak quickly, sat down on the sofa in the drawing room, and invited him to sit across from me.

 

Hern sat down and started talking.

 

“Right now, there are ways to ease this.”

 

“What is that?”

 

“It’s to make an antidote to the Giles flower. Antidote, we can make it.” 

 

Hern spoke clearly.

 

I opened my eyes wide.

 

You can make an antidote to the Giles flower? The Giles flower was famous for its poisonous plants without antidotes.

 

But what do you mean by antidote?

 

Only then did Kendrick’s previous attitude flash through my mind. 

 

He wasn’t surprised when beastmen who had lost their minds appeared.

 

Although he didn’t ask me for treatment, he comforted me and told me not to worry because they were not killing beastmen at random. 

 

‘So that’s why.’

 

There was an antidote.

 

“But there is a problem.”

 

Hern continued, wiping his sweat.

 

“It’s hard to get the raw materials for the medicine. Because, the raw material of the drug… They are leaves and flowers from the land of Tamar.”

 

“The raw materials for the medicine are the flowers and leaves from Tamar?”

 

I blinked after hearing Hern’s words. 

 

After listening to Hern, I understood why Kendrick asked me for leaves and flowers every time I went to Tamar. 

 

I thought it was just for research, but Herne and Kendrick were using them to create a treatment that could detoxify the Giles flower.

 

But why didn’t they tell me?

 

Hern seemed to understand my feelings and continued speaking with a sigh. 

 

“Sir Kendrick told me not to tell Lady. He told me to keep it a secret, not only from Lady but from everyone. I guess he was worried that if this matter became known, Lady’s secret would be revealed.” 

 

Only then did I realize that Hern knew that I had purified the land of Tamar.

 

Well, he should have told him where he got the leaves and flowers.

 

I understood Kendrick.

 

If it turns out that an antidote can be made, other clans will also ask to know how to make an antidote.

 

Then he should also tell them where he got the ingredients. 

 

This also meant that my secret, which Kendrick had been hiding by using his abilities for ten years now, would be revealed to everyone. 

 

“But now we’re running out of ingredients, so we can’t make the antidote. It has been a long time since you returned to the land of Tamar.” 

 

Hern lowered his voice and whispered.

 

“Because you went there before the festival started…” 

 

At that time, he brought me a basket at Kendrick’s request, but it must have been far from enough to make enough antidotes in that amount. 

 

“Right now, the only person who can get the ingredients is you…” 

 

Hern said.

 

I nodded. 

 

It is not yet known whether outsiders can enter the land of Tamar.

 

Kendrick never set foot in the land of Tamar in the first place, and because Kendrick kept the purified place completely hidden, the only people who visited Tamar during that time were Arsene and me. 

 

So I had to go get the ingredients.

 

“How much will it take to make the antidote?”

 

“I would appreciate it if you could bring as much as you can. Since the situation is so serious right now… I think we should make as much as we can and stock up. We plan to rescue victims of the wolf clan first, and if any remain, we will also rescue other clans. But.” 

 

Hern said.

 

“It takes a lot of work and a lot of quantity for me to make it alone, so after asking Kendrick’s understanding, I’m going to ask for help from the Deer Clan.”

 

I nodded.

 

A deer clan would definitely be helpful. Because they were a clan that liked research and were skilled in herbalism.

 

“Okay, then should I leave now?”

 

When I stood up, Arsene looked at me with worried eyes.

 

“Linsy, how long has it been since you arrived?”

 

“But Arsene, it’s urgent now. There is no time to rest.”

 

Arsene sighed at my words and hugged me slightly.

 

“Then I will go with you.”

 

“Okay, let’s go together.”

 

I lightly stroked Arsene’s hair.

 

It was definitely safer to go with Arsene than to go alone.

 

‘It’ll be difficult if the bird clan comes after me again.’

 

I couldn’t tell Arsene, but my body began to tremble as I remembered the bird clan that was fiercely chasing me.

 

I was lucky and got away with it that time, but there was no guarantee that I would be able to do the same again next time. Besides,

 

‘I felt like I was the target.’

 

Beastmen who have lost their minds usually bite everything in sight rather than setting a single goal and biting it.

 

But the bird clan flew towards me fiercely, as if they could only see me. 

 

I kept having a bad feeling.

 

“Anyway, let’s go, Arsene.”

 

“Are we going by carriage?”

 

Arsene asked. I thought for a moment and shook my head.

 

“Change into comfortable clothes and ride on the shadow wolf’s back. It’s dark, so it won’t stand out. We have to go as secretly and carefully as possible. Okay?” 

 

“Yeah, change your clothes and come out. I’ll wait outside.”

 

Arsene and Hern left the room.

 

With the help of the maid, I changed into a one-piece dress that allowed me to move as much as possible and then picked up the basket with both hands full.

 

Arsene narrowed his eyes and looked at me.

 

“…Why?” 

 

When asked again, Arsene shook his head and waved his hand.

 

Black shadows quickly gathered around Arsene’s hand, and a huge shadow wolf stood tall in the yard.

 

And.

 

“….” 

 

Arsene waved his hand once more.

 

A small lump of shadow fell from the shadow wolf’s body and spread out to form a huge cloth.

 

“Arsene!”

 

Has Arsene learned how to use his power?

 

Arsene muttered that he was still inexperienced, and he cast a huge cloth-like shadow over his head.

 

“If you do this, you won’t be noticed. And, rather than bringing it in a basket, it would be easier to put it in a cloth and put it in the wolf’s mouth. But the more, the better… Let’s take the basket and let’s go.”

 

Arsene muttered.

 

The shadow wolf laid down flat so that we could climb on it comfortably. 

 

We climbed on the shadow wolf’s back and looked at Ethan, the knights, and Hern below.

 

“We’ll be right back!”

 

Ethan and the knights didn’t know where we were going, so they seemed worried about leaving us alone.

 

“We can’t do this, Lady. At least the Shadow Knights!”

 

“No, it’s okay. We’ll be back soon.”

 

I understood that Ethan was anxious, but I couldn’t take the knights with me.

 

Accompanying the knights will reveal that we are now heading to the land of Tamar. 

 

Only Hern, who knew where we were going, stood quietly and saw us off.

 

“Have a safe trip, Lady, Young Master.” 

 

“I’ll be back soon.”

 

As soon as I finished speaking, the shadow wolf jumped up from its spot.

 

There was no worry that other people would see us because it was a dark night.

 

“If we go straight, we might get caught, so let’s turn around.”

 

Arsene hugged my waist tightly and turned his head.

 

The shadow wolf turned and started running in the direction where Arsene turned his head.

 

I nodded.

 

A cool breeze passed by my cheek. I closed my eyes and opened them due to a tingling sensation.

 

The shadow wolf started running at a frightening speed.

 

It was so fast that no beastman could dare catch up.

 

Arsene must have been worried that I would fall, so he tightened his grip on my waist.

 

The shadow wolf passed along the path we usually take, turned around for a while, and arrived at our destination, the land of Tamar.

 

A cursed land that Kendrick has covered up with his power. 

 

Now that Kendrick’s abilities haven’t been lifted, the place just looks like a cursed land.

 

The problem is,

 

‘I can’t see the way because his ability hasn’t been lifted.’ 

 

It is impossible to distinguish which areas are purified and which areas are not.

 

Arsene said, looking blankly at the land of Tamar.

 

“Because his ability hasn’t been lifted, we won’t be able to enter on our own.”

 

I nodded.

 

‘I hadn’t even thought of this,’

 

It was a disaster.
