Days later…
Everything slowly returned to normal as everyone was preparing for the hunting season in the empire. It was one of the most important seasons in the empire and since it was the first hunting season for the crown princess, everyone was handling it delicately, as per the crown prince's orders.
Aries's life had also been mostly recurring events of indulging with Joaquin as he tried to win her over. She would then teach Curtis to read again. However, he hadn't spoken a word ever since that time and then fulfilled her duties as the crown princess.
Her search for Abel wasn't fruitful as well, because the man seemed to have vanished from the inner palace. It was the same with Conan and Dexter. Aries never got to see even their shadow, leaving her with a question: did they leave?
