Irida was at a loss, seeing her lady decide to go with His Majesty instead of running away. She didn't want anything to happen to Lady Odette, but seeing her resolve also gave her some kind of courage inside her heart.
In the end, Irida nodded before saying, "Please stay safe, Milady, Your Majesty. No need to worry about me, I know a hiding spot for myself."
"I'll see you later, Irida," Odette said as she hugged Irida for the last time, and then teleported away with His Majesty.
For some reason, Irida had a feeling that would be the last time she would ever see Lady Odette.
Be it her who died, or Lady Odette, she didn't know.
But she wished it were she who died instead, because she couldn't bear seeing such a kind soul die in front of her eyes.
'Please, stay alive, Milady…' Irida prayed in her heart.
