Kyle, who usually stayed out of political affairs, chimed in, "The situation in Westhaven is complicated right now. Crown Prince Edmund is acting as regent, but their king hasn't passed yet. Half the old officials in the court oppose Edmund's aggressive policies Even though Edmund was close with the late crown prince, Arthur, he completely disagreed with his methods. Liam was once a fervent supporter of Arthur, so I'm afraid the situation won't improve even if he survives." The old king sure has a strong will to live." Violet remarked. “He's been on the brink of death for ages. What's keeping him alive and clinging to life?" Kyle replied, "It's certainly the chaos in the country. Arthur had the support of the people, and the transition between the old king and the crown prince was almost complete. Now, with the late crown prince gone and a new one in place, the court is mostly filled with Arthur's supporters Edmund doesn't even have Liam backing him, and nobody thinks highly of him. It's a complete mess. I heard a few days ago that the king couldn't eat anymore, so it wouldn't surpriseif he's already passed. We just haven't gotten the news yet." "Has Winona sent you a message?" Carissa asked, surprised. Her senior guild member typically didn't involve himself in such matters.

"Yes, she has written to me." "But-" Before Carissa could finish her question, Kyle looked at her with a teasing glint in his eyes. "But what? My junior guild member is already caught up in court affairs. Can I stand by and do nothing? Can everyone in Meadow Ridge remain uninvolved? Even if we keep a low profile, we still have to lend a hand." Carissa felt a lump form in her throat. "I'm dragging you all into this. You've been enjoying such a carefree life in Meadow Ridge, and here I am, pulling you into the chaos. You used to lose yourself in painting and traveling, and now you're stuck in the capital because of me. I feel terrible about it." Kyle reached out as if to pat her on the back of her head, but instead, he ended up coming into contact with Rafael's hand. Rafael had seen his movement and already placed his hand on Carissa's head.

Kyle couldn't help but chuckle. “There's more than one way to live a life. While it's great to enjoy life freely, taking on sresponsibilities is part of being a man." Carissa sniffled a little. "But I just don't see you as a man." Kyle paused in surprise. "Is that an insult?" "No, that's not what I meant!" Carissa rushed to clarify. "I just think of you as a refined gentleman... who is also a man, of course.

Violet chimed in, "To be honest, I've always thought a real man had to be tall and muscular. You're impressive, Kyle, but sometimes when you wear those loose clothes, I can't help but think you look a bit fragile. You look like you couldn't even crush a chicken with your bare hands!" Carissa raised her chin proudly. "When it comes to martial arts skills, I'm the best apprentice in the Pathfinders Guild."

"Not quite," Travis interjected, looking up from his food to glance at Rafael. "He doesn't spend much tatm Meadow Ridge, but his martial arts but his h skills are impressive. He's also part of the Pathfinders Guild and is your junior guild member, so doesn't that mean his talent is even greater than yours?"

Rafael immediately shook his head, "No, Carissa is definitely more talented. You shouldn't say thatm Travis. My skills are impressive because I've been practicing since I was three years old and have learned from over a dozen mentors. I've picked up the best from each of them." Being the best apprentice in Pathfinders Guild was something Carissa was most proud of. How could Rafael take it away from her?

Besides, what Rafael said was true. He had started training when he was just a child and had put in countless hours over the years. In his opinion, his diligence outweighed any natural talent, whereas Carissa truly had a gift for it.
