Side Story: Canopus, the Guard Knight (300 Years Ago) (4)

Now, I still had one major task ahead of me.

I had to clarify who was responsible for changing the Great Saint-sama's schedule.

This time, Seraphina-sama had even put on a terrible act, trying to take sole responsibility for her visit to Sutherland.

The people of Sutherland were my kin.

Then, at that moment, Seraphina-sama said she would take action.

I was overjoyed, and no matter how I looked back on it, I hadn't seriously tried to stop her...
