Since then, I got Leon and Rio out of the dungeon and moved them to my cabin.

It was a little awkward to let sleepy Rio walk around…

I didn’t use the cabin much, since I was now supposed to sleep in Victor’s room.

They were both taken aback by Rai’s impressive appearance at first, but they quickly grew accustomed to it.

Rio slept soundly by Rai’s side. Rai was warm, so I didn’t think Rio’s symptoms would get any worse.

I said goodbye to them and left.

I headed to Victor’s room and went to sleep too. The soft bed was very comfortable.

Victor was not in the room, but I didn’t care about that.

I woke up to the sound of someone opening the door with a clank. At the same time, I assumed a fighting stance.

I felt more like an assassin than Leon, alerted by the slightest noise or sign of something.

It was early in the morning, before the sun had even come up. A blonde hair came into my view.

“Are you done already?”

Victor’s clear voice echoed through the room.

I relaxed, relieved that I was in a fighting stance against Victor….

I got off the bed and walked over to Victor.

“How’d it go? What about that guy?”

By “that guy” I assumed he meant Vian.

I didn’t know how to answer… If I told the truth, I would have to listen to Victor’s yelling in the morning. But it wouldn’t matter because if I lied to him, he’d still find out the truth.

“What kind of answer are you looking for?”

“I want to know what his weakness is.”

“You mean how to kick him off?”

Ah, Victor looked at me with a serious face.

This is why people say he was like a kid. I wish you were more like Vian.

“You sound like an idiot.”

I guess he was offended by my words because he raised one eyebrow and asked, “What?” I could see one eyebrow twitch.

I was not afraid of Victor.

“Kicking him off is something only a fool would do. Why don’t you think about playing fair and square with your own strength?”

“Whose side are you on? Besides, I’m going to fight fair and square. But I should be aware of his weaknesses. Oh, yeah! He’s got some strange hobbies, right? Uncover it.”

…I was dumbfounded. It was true what they say about people not being able to make good decisions when they’re in a hurry.

“You can call me a child, but the prince in front of me is acting more like a child.”

I voiced my opinion by placing it over Victor’s words.

Even if there was a conflict between the houses, I couldn’t understand why he wanted to be king so badly.

“What?”

“The prince helped me in the forest of death and did a lot for me, but… but I missed it.”

“Do you know who you are talking to?”

Of course, I respond with a smile.

It was just like a villainess to offend the prince of Ravaal Kingdom and then start a fight with him!

“If you continue like this, you won’t become the king. Master Vian will become the king. But he’s not looking for a fight. My guess is that he will give over the throne to you.“

Vian would not be king. He had more potential to be king than anyone else, but I could only see Victor as king in the future.

Vian would be happy even if he did not become king. Or perhaps it would be more correct to say that he had already found happiness…

“What do you mean?”

He frowned at my words.

“I’m telling you to grow up, prince.”
