I fear that if you become wounded during the event, then Joel and others will take it as a chance to attack you. You haven't told anyone from the palace you would join, have you?" Ophelia asked, crossing her fingers.
"I have not. I thought it would be a good surprise," Dante replied, partially enjoying how Ophelia panicked.
Ophelia felt relieved. "Then, it is not too late for you to change your mind. I will think of another way to get what I want."
"This is your only chance to tie Joel's hands with an order from the king. I am going to take it, and I assure you, I am well. I wouldn't take the risk if I did not think about it," Dante assured Ophelia.
