"Where's Eureka?" Akihiro asked, uneasiness visible to his voice.
"She had just fallen asleep, your highness," Raven replied respectfully.
"Oh," disappointment visible to his tone, "Then I'll just return tomorrow."
"I don't think you would be able to meet with her by tomorrow, your highness. Please give her a month," Raven answered once again.
"But, that's too long," Akihiro replied.
"Your highness, you are the king. If you want me to wake her up it is still up to you."
"Then-"
"But do please understand. You once said you treat her as your daughter. Seeing as how you are disregarding her well being only means that what you need from her is far more important to you. Seeing as how even Kaoru and Queen Haruka is involved then it only means that the matter you want to resolve is something not just important to you but to the kingdom as well."
