Inside a mountain cave beyond Iron Sand Fort, a hundred injured warriors could be seen nursing their wounds. Some lay completely motionless on the ground, while some were leaning against the wall groaning with a dark expression.
Among them, the second prince was bandaging a warrior who had lost an arm, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
This warrior was weaker than him, an ordinary Elite Knight. However, when they were escaping from the besiegement of Harune's troops, this man didn't hesitate to jump in front of him and use his body to protect him.
It wasn't just this man. To ensure his safety, many warriors had sacrificed their lives. Their selfless actions made him rethink whether he was worthy of their sacrifices.
"Thank you, Your Highness." The man forced out a smile on his pale face.
Giovanni didn't know how to respond. He felt that he wasn't deserving of the man's gratitude.
