"Everyone..."
Roland took a deep breath and shifted in his seat, pressing his back more firmly against the carriage wall.
"I need to rest for a bit. Wake me when we reach town."
"Sleep well, Roland! Don't you worry!"
Avril immediately leaned closer and patted her modest chest, vowing confidently.
"With me here, not even a mosquito will dare disturb you!"
Teresa opened her mouth, but in the end only pursed her lips and added softly.
"I will keep watch, Mr. Roland."
Outside, though there was no verbal reply, the carriage's noticeable deceleration indicated that Galvis had understood.
"Thank you."
After thanking them, Roland slowly closed his eyes and thought to himself.
'Become an Apprentice Knight!'
In that instant, brilliant golden words materialized in the darkness behind his closed eyelids.
