"A princess? Why would a princess get lost in the human realm? Did no one accompany her? That's suspicious," Alvis frowned.
"She must be a runaway," Ferdinand already figured. "They have those occasionally. Or those with her died in the human realm so she was left alone."
Alwin had limited the information he reported about Evania since Ferdinand might figure out, he knew too much.
"Who went with Alwin?" Alvis thought someone else was with Alwin.
"He went alone."
"What?!!" Alvis exclaimed in shock and disbelief. He glanced at Arabella for verification. He assumed Ferdinand must have learned to joke as well.
But Arabella's response was the same.
"Yes, he went alone," she said in a low voice since she knew why Alwin insisted on it.
