A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 350

The storm raged on for another full day before finally subsiding, just when it had become unbearably tedious.

It had been an exhausting downpour.

"Let's rest before we move on," Enkrid said after the rain stopped. Water still dripped from his clothes, and the sun peeked hesitantly through the parting clouds in the distance.

It wouldn’t last long. The sun was already tilting westward, and soon, the dim sky would plunge into complete darkness.

"Agreed."

Rem nodded.

The Mad Platoon wasn't the only concern—Crang had held up well, but the real issue was the horses.

They still had at least ten more days of riding ahead. If the mounts were already exhausted, they’d be in trouble.

More than anything, they needed to dry themselves off. Staying soaked would only lead to sickness.

If even one person started coughing, it would become a headache.

If a horse fell ill, it would be just as troublesome.

They had barely slept through the storm, marching endlessly instead.

"You're spending the time we gained on this?"

The escort muttered under his breath.

They had killed every last one of the assassins who had come for their lives, earning themselves time.

Shouldn't they be using it to move out of the enemy's predicted range?

Enkrid simply nodded.

Yes, this was how they were going to use it.

That was his answer.

The escort said nothing more.

There was nothing he could say.

His only duty was to protect his lord.

Even if he objected, they wouldn't listen.

‘He knows what he’s doing.’

At this point, his trust in Enkrid had become something akin to respect.

"Rem, start a fire."

"You sure like dumping the annoying tasks on me, don’t you?"

"Really? Should I send Ragna instead?"

If he sent Ragna to fetch dry firewood, they wouldn’t see him again until this time next year.

"No thanks."

Rem waved his hand dismissively.

"Take Dunbakel with you."

Enkrid assigned her as his assistant.

"…Ugh."

Dunbakel made her displeasure obvious.

Rem glanced at her and muttered,

"You wanna die?"
