Hero of Harmony (Continued)

Chapter 279: Last Day

Since Lazuli was somewhere doing who knows what, the bath was relatively quick, and after only ten minutes, I was already drying off and putting on my clothes; though while doing so, someone had somehow managed to open the door, which I had locked, and was peeking on me as I got dressed.

'Yep, I really need to leave soon.' Thought Alexander softly with a twitching expression as he pulled up his pants, concealing his private places before putting on a shirt.

Shaking my head, I let my hair hang down crazily rather than tie it up into a ponytail or bun like usual so it could dry properly. Once I was finished, I used [Blink] and appeared behind Amaryllis, who was now looking into the bathroom in confusion.

"Where did he go?" Muttered Amaryllis in confusion as she further opened the door, sticking her whole head through the gap, only for Alexander to gently tap her shoulders, startling her.

"Behind you." Said Alexander blandly as he folded his arms while watching Amaryllis quickly distance herself before turning around, causing her to sigh in relief.

"D-Do not startle me like that again, A-Alex." Said Amaryllis softly as she placed a hand atop her chest while staring at Alexander in slight annoyance.

"Sure, I won't. But only if you tell me how you managed to open a LOCKED door." Asked Alexander lightly as he looked at Amaryllis with narrowed eyes, causing her to raise an eyebrow before holding up a small branch with a single leaf.

"As a Princess, I have the authority to open all doors in the palace, minus the Throne Room, my parent's room, and my sibling's room." Replied Amaryllis as she sported a slightly proud expression while looking at Alexander before placing the branch back into her cleavage, where it was then promptly hidden within her ample bust.

'How the hell do women do that? Michell and Yuki do the same thing; it's like their own personal pocket dimension.' Thought Alexander in both confusion and awe as he looked at Amaryllis while scratching his head.

"So, it doesn't bother you at all that you were caught being a pervert?" Asked Alexander with a raised eyebrow as he glanced at Amaryllis before turning around and walking away, prompting her to closely follow.

"Um, no. Not really. I won't be punished after all." Replied Amaryllis softly as she tapped her chin with a curious gaze before shaking her head, causing Alexander's expression to constantly twitch.

'I would expect a Princess of all people to have shame, but I guess I was mistaken.' Thought Alexander wryly as he glanced at Amaryllis, who began to awkwardly fidget while constantly glancing at him.

"Yes? You clearly want to say something." Remarked Alexander lightly as he looked at Amaryllis, who faintly blushed in embarrassment before clearing her throat.

"So um, t-there is this super fancy restaurant that I enjoy visiting, a-and I w-would l-like to s-show you t-today." Said Amaryllis shyly as she averted her gaze away from Alexander, to embarrassed to look him in the eyes.

'Ah, a perfect place to end her little crush on me; I couldn't ask for anything better.' Thought Alexander lightly as he glanced at Amaryllis before nodding with a faint smile.

"Sounds great, Amaryllis. When will we leave?" Asked Alexander with a somewhat enthusiastic smile, causing Amaryllis's eyes to light up joyfully.

"Tonight! An hour before the sun sets!" Replied Amaryllis quickly as she looked at Alexander before sprinting in another direction.

Watching Amaryllis run in that was a little funny, though I couldn't help but wince when she face-planted onto the ground after tripping on her dress.

"P-Princess, are you alright?" Asked a butler as he knelt before Amaryllis, intending to help her, only for her to push him out of the way.
