"Why do I feel like you guys are a little weird?"

Huihui frowned and looked at Natsume Yu and Chris with red eyes.

There was nothing wrong with their behavior, but for some reason, I felt that they had become a little strange.

It seemed like they were getting closer.

"Uh-huh..."

Youyou, who was standing by, nodded and looked at the two of them seriously.

"You guys are overthinking. We still have to go to the palace today. Let's finish eating and go."

Natsume Yu said calmly, completely ignoring their curious looks.

"Are you going to look for Alice?"

Youyou's eyes lit up and she said excitedly.

Perhaps it was because of Alice's identity and the fact that she couldn't go out.

It made her see herself as a person who had no friends except Huihui, and she was very close to her.

"In a sense, almost."

""Great!"

After getting a definite reply, Youyou raised her hand and called out.

The passers-by looked at her in surprise, causing the girl to put her hand down quickly, her face turning red.

"It’s really amazing! Several nobles’ mansions were robbed last night!"

"Haha! Those guys are so arrogant on weekdays!"

"It really makes people happy!"

"Haven’t those two thieves been caught yet?"

"Not only that, no one has even seen what they look like. All they know is that they are two men, one with black hair and the other with silver hair."

""Are they the same as the two over there?"

Someone pointed at Natsume Yu and Chris and asked curiously.

Many people around looked in the direction he pointed.

It was indeed one black and one silver hair color. If one of them was not a woman, they would think it was these two people.

"..."Yeah."

The person who was originally talking nodded in astonishment.

I didn't expect to meet someone with the same hair color by chance.

""So it's two men. I really thought it was you guys. I'm so sorry."

Hearing those words, Darkness smiled apologetically and said

"Yes, there are two men."

Natsume Yu's mouth corners turned up wildly, and he looked at Chris with a smile in his eyes.

"Ha ha...It's okay. It's okay...."

The corners of Chris's eyebrows twitched wildly, and she said with a dry laugh.

Especially the smile on Natsume Yuu's face beside her, which made her even more angry.

Giving the boy a hateful look, Chris quickened her pace and walked towards the palace first.

Seeing this, Huihui on the side narrowed her red eyes slightly, and a look of interest appeared at the corners of her mouth.

While chatting and laughing, several people also arrived at the palace.

Jedis had already asked people to wait there, and when he saw Natsume Yuu and others arrived, he led them directly to the reception hall yesterday.

"Please wait a moment, I will go and inform Lord Jadis."

After saying that, the guard who led the others in bowed and left.

"Good morning, everyone."

Not long after, Jadis came quickly.

Next to him was Alice in a fluffy dress.

But at this time, her face was slightly flushed, and there was a little more unpredictable in her eyes when she looked at Natsume Yu.

But from the smile on her lips, it can be seen that she was in a good mood.

Last night after everyone left, Jadis told her about his plans.

She was not disgusted by the fact that her fiancé might be Natsume Yu.

It is better to say that as a princess, she was prepared to marry a stranger.

But if that person was Natsume Yu, she would think it was not bad.

He looked good, and his identity was a hero. Although they only had a little contact in terms of personality, he was not bad overall.

And they could go on adventures together later, which was simply a pleasant surprise.

"Hello, everyone." Alice

, who was dressed in a pure white dress and had blonde hair and blue eyes and looked like a doll, folded her hands in front of her and smiled softly as she greeted them.

""Master Jadis, Master Alice, good morning."

Darkness quickly stood up and responded, and Huihui and Yunyun also shouted.

"There is no need to do that. We are partners from now on. Just call me Alice."

Alice said with a playful smile when she came to the front of the group.

After knowing that she could leave the palace, her hidden nature gradually came out.

""Eh? ? ?"

Several people looked up at Alice in amazement, a little confused. They could understand every word she said, but after putting them together, they couldn't quite understand the meaning of her words.

""Hasn't Mr. Natsume told you yet?"

This reaction made Alice tilt her head slightly and look at Natsume Yu in confusion.

"You?"

Several people suddenly remembered the scene last night when Natsume You was called into the house by Jedis.

A guess arose in their minds.

"Then let me introduce you to our new companion, Princess Alice."

Natsume Yuu stood up and walked to Alice's side, laughing and saying

"I didn't tell you last night because I wanted to give you a surprise."

"surprise...I was really surprised."

Darkness covered her forehead and felt a headache.

"Lord Jadis, taking risks is no joke. If something happens to Princess Alice......"

Then she turned to look at Jadis and said,"

It's not that she rejects Alice's joining, but as she said, it's not good for a princess of a country to have an accident.

"Don't worry, Alice is very strong."

"Besides, we still have loyal teammates like you and Mr. Natsume. I believe you..."

Alice's strength is beyond doubt, and with the ancestral artifact, she is invincible.

It is precisely because of this that he is confident in letting Alice join Natsume Yu's team.

Not to mention there is also a young lady from the Guardian Blade family.

"I will protect Lady Alice with my life!"

After hearing what Jadis said, Darkness could only respond seriously.

Then he turned around and was about to say something.

But he found that Huihui, Youyou and Chris were already talking and laughing with the princess.

Doesn't this make what he just said seem like a bad guy?!?

Jadis looked at Alice, whose face was gradually filled with a smile, smiled, turned around and walked away to the office

"Lord Jadis, Alderp is missing.

A professional came to Jadis and whispered

"Gone?"

The smile on his face disappeared, his brows furrowed, and Jadis's eyes fell on the person next to him.

"Yes, I couldn't find it anywhere. Even Axel's mansion was gone. It was as if he had disappeared from the world."

"Moreover, a lot of evidence of his crimes was found, including trafficking, embezzlement of property, kidnapping of wives and daughters, etc."

"Damn you!"

Jadis frowned even more and shouted loudly.

He was already weakened by the war entrance, but he dared to play these tricks.

If Alderp was in front of him, he would definitely kick him to death.

"Thank you for your hard work. Please continue to investigate and find him! And bring him back!"

"yes!"

"Was it intentional? That necklace...It seems that I have to thank those two thieves."

Jedis said softly while sitting at his desk.

He didn't have any bad feelings towards those two thieves.

He was constantly fighting outside, and he was extremely disgusted with the behavior of some nobles.
