The previous chapter was unusually soft as Riftan and Maxi share a rather sweet and precious moment together. We all know Maxi’s rather sad history with her family and the abuse she endured. We can guess she coped with it by thinking about a Knight in shining armor who would rescue her and tell her it would be okay.
She was finally getting to actually experience that with Riftan being there for her and reassuring her that no matter what. He would be there for her, and he would make sure everything was okay. We will see what happens next in Under the Oak Tree Chapter 86.
It seems like there is some tension brewing with monster attacks in the North, and Remdragon Knights might have to go there to subjugate the monsters. That would also mean that Riftan would be going with them, which is, of course, a subject of concern for Maxi, who is rather worried about Riftan’s safety.
This seems like a foreshadowing for the trouble that is to come in the future because Riftan would have no choice but to go if things get out of control in North and the King actually commands him to go there. We all are hoping that things don’t get to that so the two can continue their peaceful life in Anatol.
Of course, even with the rocky start, the two get around to loving each other, and their love story is rather cute and a bit problematic at times. In today’s article, we will discuss the release date of Under the Oak Tree Chapter 86, recap what happened previously, and where you can read it.
Recap
In the previous chapter of Under the Oak Tree, Maxi was pretty worried because Riftan had been coming back rather late because of the new construction that was going on and the trouble with monsters. She asks him if everything is alright, and Riftan tells her that the Earl has asked for his help in subjugating monsters.
In return, he was offering to help Riftan with the construction of the roads. Well, it seems like that worried Maxi because she didn’t want Riftan going out to fight, but nothing was really fixed then. She also brings up the issue of the monsters in the north and his possible deployment.
However, Riftan reassures her that he will not be leaving and he will have one of the reliable knights take charge in his stead. Maxi wondered if it was possible because the King might as well order for him to be at the front lines. However, Riftan was sure that the King wouldn’t do that.
Seeing Maxi all worried about him made Riftan a little happy, and Maxi felt shy from the way he was looking at her. The two share a rather cute and tender moment together after that. The next day, Maxi and Ruth go out together, and Ruth reassures Maxi that Riftan will never do anything that wouldn’t benefit him.
After that, they call a very nervous-looking knight to help test Maxi’s magic shield. The poor guy was super nervous since he was worried that it might injure Maxi. However, after much persuasion, he attacks Maxi with a wooden sword, and the shield completely shatters, and the sword hits Maxi’s forehead instead.
