Vol 1 Chapter 18 (2/2)

“Of course, I aet to know each other”

“I’ alone in a private room is not allowed”

“Oh…”

At Alfred-sama’s words, Greed-sa at all That, it was absolutely a superficial smile Greed-safully

“It is upsetting to be upbraided by you, Prince Alfred…… Have you forgotten about the night after Princess Louise was kidnapped?”

“……Na—!”

Mr Alf Reed exclai red I don’t knohat they are talking about The night after Princess Louise was kidnapped?

But Alfred-saan to feel disturbed

“How did youN-no, thatI-I caood intentions……”

He was flustered as he explained Cold sweats are appearing, Alfred-sama……

On the contrary, Greed-sama is calm and composed

“I also caood intentions”

He said with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes

Is it just o? I instinctively retorted in my mind

However, I was sorry for Alfred-sa reproached like that, so I decided to lend a helping hand

In other words, changing the topic

“Co-Come to think of it, it’s been a while since I saw you, Alfred-sama”

Alfred-sama’s expression clearly showed relief, unlike his upset appearance that he cannot conceal earlier

……Really, what did you do the night after Princess Louise was kidnapped?

Anyway, it doesn’t matter to me, whose head is only filled with the princess

“Yeah It’s really been a long time since we’ve talked like this” Alfred-sama smiled wryly

“It’s because you are responsible for the castle’s security” I said, nodding in agreement

It is the duty of this person to defend the castle against the de in cohts ere prepared for human intruders So after the barrier was broken by the , Alfred-sama was very busy at that time when Famir-sama was not present

And yet, he was a very kind person who tolda royalty, but his character compensates for that Despite his lack of presence, I think that many people adore himcompared to Enwald-sama

“No, I’m not really that busy but……”

Alfred-sa troubled

“Just when I thought about seeing you, various probles flew at ust, my foot suddenly slipped and I fell down the stairs Also, a lot of people spoke to me more than usual until I ran out of time So I could not meet you in the end”

……E-eh, I think I’ve heard so extraordinary just now

Water falling, sudden gust blowing, foot suddenly slipping——

Is it just ination, or are some external forces at work……?
