We walked a little farther away from the group of contestants. Reymond, now in his original attire, not as the Champion, was accompanied by his knight, Sir Dave.
I think, after what happened in Daisy Town last month, this was the first time I spoke to him personally. Of course, he visited me when I was in the infirmary, but at that time, it felt more like an official visit.
"You must have heard already about what the palace did to cover the real story of what happened back there?" he suddenly asked.
"Yes," I nodded. He must be referring to the cover-up story that Reymond was the one who defeated Azul, not a G-rank like me.
"Sigh. I actually want to be honest with you. I haven't been having a good sleep since that day. And now, I want to come clean with you. I'm someone who really hates taking credit for what other people did. And I truly don't deserve it. What happened there is a feat that deserves at least a medal of appreciation from the kingdom."
