Vivi was not shy and sat directly across from Anos, her eyes widening as she gazed at the spread of food on the table.

The delicious smells filled the room, making her stomach growl loudly, causing her to blush in embarrassment.

Anos, sitting calmly, noticed her discomfort and broke the silence.

"How did you get here?" he asked, casually taking a bite of the roasted meat in front of him.

Without hesitation, Vivi began to explain, her voice full of excitement, "I followed Igaram-san. I overheard my father saying that the King of Tru kingdom was coming here, and he talks about you so often that I got really curious. I wanted to see what you looked like for myself!"

She paused for a moment, then added with a mischievous smile, "So I secretly followed Igaram-san."

As she spoke, her small hands eagerly grabbed pieces of food, her cheeks puffing out as she ate hurriedly, as if she hadn't eaten in days. Her enthusiasm was both adorable and amusing, prompting smiles from everyone at the table.

Suzu and Daiki, seated nearby, exchanged glances of surprise.

They had never imagined that such a young girl could be so bold as to follow an important figure like Igaram. Her determination was impressive, and both of them silently admired her bravery.

"She's quite something," Suzu whispered to Daiki, who nodded in agreement.

Vivi continued eating, her face lighting up with every bite. "This food is amazing!" she exclaimed between mouthfuls. "We don't have anything this good back home."

Just as they were finishing up their meal, a loud commotion suddenly erupted outside the room.

The clanking of armour and hurried footsteps echoed through the halls.

Moments later, the doors to the dining room burst open, and Igaram, looking flustered, entered with the guards.

The moment Igaram saw Vivi, his expression softened, and he let out a long sigh of relief. "Princess Vivi, how could you leave the palace like this? His Majesty has been worried sick!" he said, a mix of relief and frustration in his voice.

Vivi, still chewing, looked up at him with innocent eyes. "I'm sorry, Igaram-san. I was just too curious, so I came here. But there's nothing to worry about now," she said with a sheepish grin, her mouth still full of food.

Igaram, clearly exasperated but relieved that Vivi was safe, turned toward Anos and bowed respectfully. "My sincerest apologies, Your Majesty King Tru. It seems our princess has caused some disturbance. I'll take her back to the palace right away."

But Anos waved him off with a smile. "No need. She can stay here tonight. We'll head to Alubarna together in the morning," he said, his tone lighthearted and reassuring.

"Are you sure, Your Majesty?" Igaram asked, his brow furrowed in concern. He was still worried about Vivi's safety.

"If you're uncomfortable, you're welcome to stay outside with your guards tonight," Daiki suggested as he stood up from the table, trying to offer some comfort to Haruya's concerns.

Anos, however, smiled again and gestured for Igaram to relax.

"Sit down and have something to eat with us. There's plenty of food, and no need to rush," he said, offering his guest hospitality.

"No, Your Majesty," Igaram declined politely, his voice respectful.

"We have our duties to tend to, and I wouldn't want to impose. Since Princess Vivi is here, I may have disturbed you more than I intended. Please forgive me for the trouble," he said, bowing once again.
