The days passed and no one wanted to make the first move, because, according to Gray, the enemy was still evaluating his actions, and wanted the king to do something stupid.
So, for the first time in a week, the group gathered in the same room, the meeting room.
Yuki:We should take advantage of this situation, Gray, I suggest you infiltrate the castle and find Roy, or rather, take him out.
Gray:Hm...
Yuki:Or at least, kidnap him, if we wait longer, the King will send his forces to destroy us.
Gerd:B-But if we do that, then the w-whole country w-will be against us, w-we sh-shouldn't get anymore people involved.
Gray:That's a good point, it would be a mistake to involve the commoners, or any innocent.
Yuki:Damn it!
Lilian: Kidnapping him? He's our friend.
Dimai:Yep, I don't see the point of it.
Kira:I also agree, he's our friend, after all.
Gray:Hm, okay, here's a proposal.
Marcus:Which is...?
Gray:I'll talk to the king, I'll see if I can get Roy back by making a deal.
Yuki:Again? Am I wrong or have you already tried?
Gray:...Yes.
Lilian:But did it work?
Gray:No.
Dimai:What if they ambush you?
Gray:They won't.
Gerd:A-Are you sure?
Gray:Very.
Kira:How?
Gray:It's simple, they are afraid of me.
Remy:Pff, of course they are, but what is it for you, a compliment?
Gray:Yes.
Kira:You are such a narcissist.
Gray:Hahaha, you've caught me, and speaking of that.
Remy:I'll go, don't worry, I won't fuck this time, and I have an idea, but I need Lilian, Eros, Gerd, Dimai, Erika...and Marcus.
Marcus:I don't like how you said my name.
Remy:Shut up.
Marcus:But...
Remy:Just...shut up.
Erika:So, what's the plan?
Remy:I thought I'd take you to the pool for a bit.
Eros:To...
Lilian:The pool?
Yuki: Wait a sec, Remy, is that what I think?
Remy:Yep.
Meanwhile, King Heinrich, escorted by some soldiers, was walking around the city.
Heinrich:Today we're going to see a very interesting event, I can assure you that.
Soldier:But your highness, isn't that the most important day for the whole kingdom?
Heinrich:Of course it is, but it's a good thing we came early.
Soldier:And what are we going to see?
Heinrich:Don't ask so many questions, just do your job and try to relax.
Soldier:Y-yes, Sir!
Some time later, after a whole day around the city, Heinrich returned to the palace.
