Kedrick constantly talked about how cold a person Arsen was whenever he got the chance. 'Do you see this wound? I got it when a demonic beast bit my leg.

Though he looked so cold that not a drop of blood would come out if you stabbed him, Arsen was a kind person.

The archbishop stood at the small altar with a devout expression, offering prayers. Rockfort stood facing Elia, who sat in a chair, waiting for the prayer to end. "At this moment, with the rightful authority bestowed upon me by God, I intend to bind the fate of these two people to each other forever."

Epilogue (2) ......Let's run away! Just as she was about to grab her skirt and run, something dropped in front of her. Lumiere gasped and looked at Karl, who was standing up lightly in front of her.
