I laid my hand on the handle of the door in front of me. A little push should open it easily, but I can't help it.

"Rouche, it's okay."

My father was kind to my head.

What makes me so nervous?

"Come on, go away. Because Master Eich is waiting for you."

"... yes, Father"

I was coming to the royal castle to see Master Eich. It's the first time we've seen each other since that day. Surrounded by my unclear nervousness, my father pushed me on the back and never opened the door to my will.

"Wow!!

Something jumped at me the moment I opened the door.

"Eich!?

"Rouche!! Long time no see."

She held onto me with an unchangeable smile. That smile was no different than before, but there was no Joshua by her side.

"Eich."

I called Eich's name.

"What's the matter, Luche? Are you feeling better?

Her smile was strangely shadowy. The more unusual.

Oh, she's a princess even at a young age. I just got a little worried.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Is Eich okay now?

Eich's body was indeed pierced by the sword. Looks like I healed it, but suddenly time came back and the wound came back, and I was worried that it might be something like that.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I wasn't hurt from the beginning."

The memory of myself being pierced with a sword seems to have fallen completely out. Yeah, that's fine.

I was surrounded by silence. It's the hard part about what to talk about.

"... sorry Joshua did something stupid."

It was from Eich who opened his mouth. Finally, I may be careless when I say it, but Aihi's face clouded.

"It's not Eich's fault. Not to mention... it's not even Joshua's fault"

It's because of that imperial broker. My spine freezes just to remember. I kinda hate it when I think the same blood is flowing on me as that guy.

"... that moron, next time I see you, I'll bully you"

"... Phew"

The laughter spilled unexpectedly. I don't know if I can see him, but I'm sure Eich is going to see him.

"You can't fight."

"That depends on how Joshua gets out."

If she did, she'd always fool around with no respect for me.

"I think Joshua cared about Eich."

"... I told your father and the new squire refused."

That was my first ear.

"You leave it free for him."

"It's not like that. But there was no such thing as this among the candidates your father brought in."

There's no way that Your Majesty is going to pick the one he can't use. I might have dared to choose... Well, I'll leave you to say that.

"Really? Well, you can do whatever you want. 'Cause you're a princess, and you can say it yourself."

Forgive me for a moment.

"Right? Anyway, I'll get the ladies to help me get dressed, and they'll let me in for tea."

It's no problem that you didn't have a squire.

Me and Eich laugh face-to-face. Not a real smile yet, but I'm sure, I'm fine.

"Oh, I'm tired"

The boy with silver hair woke up from a long sleep. White columns, ceilings in my eyes. It's the color I've known since I was born. I'm sure they wear the same color outside.

"You didn't do anything."

It was the doll Keith who peered himself in with an open face.

"I was wondering if I should send it back..."

"I'm sorry.... or you, you've done that and the kids haven't really got one."

'Cause it was a hassle.'

It was a hassle to expose a child under that circumstance.

"Trouble... I don't know what grandfathers would say about not having one trophy while people like you are out..."

Keith held his head down.

"I don't know. In the first place, this happened because those idiots deserved it, didn't they?... besides, I'm taking the loot home properly"

"What?... Buffoo"

Something hard was thrown in Keith's nose. It hurts too much... Is your nose safe... And what is this?

Keith picked up a black one that rolled to the ground.

"This is... Is it a gem...?

It's like obsidian... This is the loot?

"Magic Stone. I made it out of a black kid."

"What? Magic Stone...? Don't be silly. I've never seen such a black magic stone. How much magic..."

No way..., and Keith saw the silver boy. And I regretted it.

The face was stunned. Even demons, ghosts won't look like this.

"I'm still connected to them... Magic is inexhaustible..."

When I said that and put my hands together, the same magic stones became more and more flooded. Karan, make a noise with Karan and roll.

"You..."

I was speechless.

"Gagging is more efficient than brainwashing annoying kids."

You don't have to do anything wrong with kidnapping a child...

Pussy.

Something hung up in my head sounded.

"Oh, you probably smoked too much.... I guess he's dead."

If you're not careful, it's an important source of supply.

"And... because there were some expressions..."

The face was completely different and lukewarm than it had just been. For the first time in that too much transformation, Keith earnestly pulled. And though he was an enemy, he drew the same blood as this emperor, sympathizing from the bottom of his heart with that princess of Listil. I mean this obsession.

"He's an expression, and he's one of the honorable blood men.... don't break it."

"I'm not breaking it"

'Cause she's... she's something.
