Chapter 5 (2/2)

“This is why I cannot let anyone else bear this burden, I have to become soht I have returned to the path I once saith you your highness but I am still not as far in the path as you thus please continue I will be next to you in no time”(Doyle)

I finish saying hness who heardto find what to say I patiently wait for his highness to say so to hear that I did not need him anymore But I had to say this, until you say that you need me, until I become that kind of person, I believe that this is what it takes to face our past

“Doyle…” (Prince)

“Yes, your highness?”(Doyle)

“I will be waiting”(Prince)

His hand were firm but his face had a very lonely expression I as, such as how do you plan to do that or are you sure, but he held it in and told

I have to respond as such to his kindness

“Please be waiting, I will surpass all of your expectations and more”(Doyle)

“Do not run away this ti forever if that happens”(Prince)

“Yes”(Doyle)

“I will be waiting forever…with…Claire”(Prince)

I felt a fear when his highness said that na that

Why did he mention the name of the princess

“You have been looked after by Claire a lot…At least send a letter to her”(Prince)

“Ah, about the third princess……”(Doyle)

“If you say that another woood or that you won’t even do that, then I will not even have to wait a second You will soon become rust on my blade”(Prince)

His eyes were serious, and in fact he had his hand on his shen saying that

“…A person like me is not fit for a person like her”(Doyle)

“Well you may think that, Claire does not My sister insists that it has to be you, My father and I tried very hard to persuade her otherwise but it was all for naught Claire is one of things you must carry on your shoulder like you said, thus for you to atone to her, you must make Claire happy”(Prince)

I wanted to say to the prince that what I said before and this s but he still had his hand on his sword He was always very doting on his one year younger sister Claire He always chased away the guys that came to her and said “I must accept the man you marry otherwise they will be rust on my blade”

I was to confess here, Claire, the third princess is actually ence and beauty were both hers and she had dark green eyes with long black hair She likedto be a bad boy I saw in book, I kept teasing her until she cried, this lead to the prince, her brother to scold me

I want her to be happy because I love her still

This is certain, but I do not believe that I can make her happy She is brilliant and adorable, there are millions of people in this world who could make her ten tiet married to another country’s crown prince and thus become a queen

I wonder if I even have the qualification to stand next to her But since the prince is telling me to cherish the princess and

“With all my heart”(Doyle)

I know that this was the answer his highness wanted

But, right now I cannot proive it, I have to think about this properly

But, the prince seeingthose words accepted my answer for now and nodded

“Well then, I will be waiting……but Doyle, do not ”(Prince)

“…I will advance with force, my lord”(Doyle)

I dropped hness also took one step forward and stopped in front ofto me but he stopped himself

The distance between hness is about one person I always felt this distance was massive and no matter what I will never be able to cross it but now I feel this distance has shortened a significant amount and soon I will able to stand beside him

I will face hihness knows this thus he had done this actions

“Catch up to o Jin”(Prince)

“Yes”(Jin)

His highness left the lobby with the guy named Jin, I kept my head lowered until I could not hear their footsteps anyot up slowly after that

“…Doyle-sama!”(Ballad)

Ballad called hed at that reaction

“I a to back to my room, can I ask Ballad to clean up here? Come back to the room after you are done”(Doyle)

“Yes!”(Ballad)

After seeing Ballad had started to clean up the teaware and other stuff on the table, I started to leave the lobbyI walked down the hallways and saw people giving ant and inti I found out the cause soon, it was hness that was giving off this feeling and air It seehness in the hallhile I walked, I felt a little lonely at this fact but I quickly changed froot him to say that he ait for

I see for that conversation I will remember today forever

My oath cerereat, which caused a ripple effect and lead me to the unexpected encounter with the Prince This encounter was not disaster but a great fortune to me

I once again realized that many people have always cared forsick was the best thing to happen to ave me a chance to reflect and redo, walk a path that I want to walk and help stand beside the prince again Although there are still s left to do and left to think, I feel I will be fine I can leave most of it for later except that one, Claire, my first love and the third princess, I will be busy tomorrow

There was no one in the dorm hallway but there was still a hour until the freshmen curfew I feel that the hallill soon beco about the days ahead I felt happy somewhat
