Leon opened his mouth after seeing that Alicia was sleeping pleasantly in Duke's arms.

Is there blood in Melvin?

Reacting to Leon's words, Duke turns to him. There was a strange sense of nervousness, but after confirming that they weren't hostile to each other, Duke started talking.

“Yeah, I've never been there, but it's my mother's home.”

Mother, you mean Amelia-sama?

Duke didn't think his mother's name would come out of Leon's mouth, but he did. Leon watched the situation and added his words.

"It seems that Amelia-sama was popular in Melvin country." I told my grandfather that it was a bright way to treat the poor equally. "

"... I see. I have only faint memories, but my mother was strong."

Viktor listened to Leon and Duke's conversation in silence, disinterested.

Leon smiles bitterly at Duke's words, “Is it a good country?”

I don't know.

In response to Leon's vague answer, Duke made no further reference. Leon turned to Alicia to change the subject.

"The prince's lover is far from the princess, isn't he?" I still can't believe the Lord is your daughter. Certainly elegant and elegant, but...... you're not the princess I know. "

"I'm never an enemy of any princess in the world, but I'm the best princess."

Duke grinned at Leon's words and gently stroked Alicia's hair.

At that moment, Leon was nailed to his head, wondering what a beautiful couple they were. Viktor never sees Duke and Alicia as he looks forward in a grumpy mood.

"...... ahhh, there certainly isn't a woman in this world who surpasses the Lord"

Leon said so in a gentle voice, breaking his face.

At that moment, something solid flew towards Duke and Alicia from among the trees.

“Watch out!” Leon's loud voice echoed through the forest.

I woke up reflectively to the sound of something flying, and grabbed it with my bare hands before it hit Duke's face.

It was flying at a pretty fast speed, and my palms ached.

... I'm glad I trained for something like this.

"No, it's too handsome," said Leon, poking ahead of his worried words. I will check with Duke to see if he is injured.

Are you hurt?

"Oh, where's Alicia? Is she all right?"

Yes, I'm fine.

Answering that, I open my hands and see what came flying.

"... stone?"

It's a normal stone.... well, what do you mean? Is there even an ape in this forest?

Viktor stares at the stone as it flies. Once again, I realize that there is no one who knows all about this forest.

I'm sure it's a forest with a lower survival rate than the Dead Forest. I mean, there's very little information about this place.

It's so barbaric to fly a stone.

The murderous voice of Duke-sama made my spine freeze.
