Chapter 577: You Cannot Go Back to Umbra
"It's my fault he is there. I should go there and -"
"No," Arabella cut him off.
"Can't you let me finish?" Alwin made a face.
"You can't go back there. What if that entity does something again and you get fatally injured or worse yet, die this time? I will not be able to forgive myself for not stopping you from going," Arabella replied sternly.
"But His Majesty-"
"Ferdinand is alright. You don't know how restless and worried he was when your presence vanished. The thought that you could have died terrified him. Ferdinand would blame himself for as long as he lived if something happened to you. It's akin to how I felt when I thought I had lost Fermin forever. He would be engulfed in grief for eons."
Arabella had to point out this worst-case scenario for Alwin to understand just how important he was to Ferdinand.
[Why are her eyes like that? Was my lord really that worried?]
