- General, anyone can buy my loyalty with a handful of coins.
Geb pretended not to hear the general and smiled modestly at the governor.

- A reward? Let's get it quickly!

Akane stroked Selene's head, listening to her sweet voice. Snow White's hair smelled pleasantly of fragrant soap, and her hands smelled of medicinal herbal remedies. Akane took a deep breath of these scents and said: - Everything is behind us, the past must remain in the past, I will never let anyone hurt you, my... - Akane stopped, she had never had to call anyone "hers" before. - My... Snow White. Then she looked at herself again, still so dirty, and looked at Selene, who had partially shared this dirt with her during their embrace. - I want to wash up at last...

Selena didn't answer, but her smile revealed the happiness she felt.
*****
That day, red and white colors merged into a beautiful dance of colors against the backdrop of the setting sun, leaving no room for doubt: a new chapter in the lives of Snow White and Akane would begin on the same page. They had no reason to continue cooperating with the Kro Empire and would leave the island at the first opportunity, disappearing in a direction known only to them.

- You save people, and this is the thanks you get, - Sophronaios looked at the sky and sighed heavily, - and what business do you have with the Governor? And how can I help? Is there something preventing you from approaching and talking to her?

-- With your recommendation, it would be easier, esteemed member of the expedition! -- said the mage with a hint of sarcasm.

- Reward? Let's get it over with!

-- Patience, my little friend. We need to recover after this battle and complete another task: to secure our city. I think the intelligence gathered from a couple of elves will help us with that.
The General snorted disdainfully.

- I can't give a recommendation if I don't know your intentions. I know very little about you, only your name and nationality!

- Then let's secure it. What should we do?

In response to Sophronios' remark, Cerera replied with a dismissive "Hmm!" and simply walked away. Apparently, she had a proud nature. The members of the expedition (if they wished) all rested after the difficult battle. Those who didn't want to rest were simply placed in the military barracks: they freed up a floor for them, put shackles on them, and they spent the night like that. Apparently, they will have to spend the following nights in the same way. Well, at least the general and Berengar were given separate apartments. The captain and other wounded, as a result of medical treatment, eventually regained consciousness and even seemed to be quite capable. In any case, Sanchez managed to tell the governor about Urthang's military exploits. It seems that this orc was gradually becoming his second favorite, after Rutyn, of course. The night hadn't even ended, and dawn hadn't yet arrived, when a terrible roar was heard, and the city's inhabitants poured out. They managed to see some movement, but everyone's attention was diverted by the fact that an entire building had turned into ruins, and it looked like people were trapped under the rubble. This was not a good sign.

After Cereira left, Sophronios decided to inform Sanchez and the governor about the strange sorceress, just in case.

-- Hmm, -- Sanchez mumbled. -- And where is she now? Do you think we should keep an eye on her?

- It wouldn't be bad, but she'll easily notice me, and might suspect something. It's better to send someone less conspicuous.
"For example, Zephyr. Although, I'm not sure he'll agree."

-- And who do you suggest? That girl, the Yor, doesn't seem to have stealth skills, or am I mistaken?

- What can I do? She's probably an air mage, just like me. She'll be able to sense my approach, even if I try to follow her by running across rooftops and flying above her. And in the latter case, I think she won't be the only one to notice me.

-- Alright, do as you please. I'm not in the mood to chase after beautiful women right now, and we have a lot to do tomorrow.

- I can pretend I changed my mind and bring her to you, if you want. But the rest will be up to you.
