Meanwhile, Ruth was having a good time with Julianna. The two had recently started dating, but had yet to officially reveal their relationship, so they were meeting secretly.

Princess Julianna made it seem like she had invited him to a tea party with the ladies.

However, there were only two people at the tea party – Ruth and Julianna.

A small garden decorated with a pretty tea table.

Even though it seemed sweet even without dessert, Julianna's expression was not good.

That was due to the news brought by the servant this morning.

'That's ridiculous.'

It was okay to say that Cedric and Damien coerced Sir Raymond into a duel.

'My brothers are on my side, too.'

Princess Julianna's eyebrows suddenly furrowed as she listened.

"Sir Griffith suddenly showed up and said he would box them instead! But the princes' were hit and collapsed..."

"No way! How dare he hurt the Imperial Princes!"

"Of course, afterwards, he cast a healing spell with divine power and went back..."

The servant replied, restless.

And yet, Julianna was dumbfounded.

[If he hadn't used his powers, but left them alone to heal, would the crime have not disappeared?]

Hearing the story, Griffith must be mentally challenged, Julianna thought.

How dare he do something to the royal family?

Of course, she heard that he was also a member of the royal family, but this is the Aurarian Empire. How dare he do that to the princes of the Imperial City!

She was angry about it and was talking to Ruth.

Her heart ached at the thought of her brothers, who must have been hurt for her pride.

Ruth kindly consoled her and blamed Griffith together with her.

Then the story switched to Sir Raymond.

As the two decided to meet seriously, they decided to use honorifics when they were alone for the future.

Even though she was angry, Julianna spoke firmly in her language.

"What a loyal, cowardly man! I thought he was a good person. He didn't even bother me, yet he called Griffith to insult them?"

"......"

She was so angry that she began to criticize Sir Raymond continuously, but there was no answer from Ruth.

'You agreed with me when I criticized Griffith, didn't you?'

"You're on my side, right?"

Julianna became a little sulky. When she pouted and crossed her arms, Ruth panicked.

"Oh, no, no! It's just that... Sir Raymond wouldn't have thought much. Unlike Griffith, Sir Raymond is not such a bad guy."

"... Do you really think so?"

"In fact, I had a lot of help from Sir Raymond before I confessed to the Princess."

Julianna's eyes narrowed at the words.

She urged him to go into more details. Ruth was embarrassed but gave a rough explanation of their meetings.

After hearing the whole story like that, Julianna laughed dumbfoundedly.
