Gresis’s POV*
It was around 3 o’clock in the afternoon when I came back to the royal palace after going to the forest for the newcomer’s subjugation training.
I saw Sanse at the entrance of the knight’s building.
As I recall, Sanse was on duty as Lilith’s exclusive escort today. So, is Lilith coming to see me?
I was in a good mood and headed to the knight’s building with my subordinates and newcomers.
“His Highness Gresis, Her Highness the Princess!”
I doubted Sanse’s report.
Did Lilith give poisonous flowers to my father and brother and try to kill them?
Is it my father’s Royal Knights who came to the residence to say that? So, was she taken to the knight’s wing?
“And a little while ago, she seems to have been detained in the basement room.”
“What!?”
The basement room is a room where people who are high-ranking aristocrats that have committed a crime or who are suspected of committing crimes are temporarily held captive.
Lilith was put in there? What on earth is my father thinking?
For the time being, once I went to the office to leave the newcomers to Agar, Agar came in a panic.
“Gresis, Her Royal Highness is in the basement room-”
“I heard from Sanse. I’ll leave the newcomers to you. I’m going to His Majesty the King.”
I hurried to my father’s office.
“What is the emergency?”
When I said it was urgent, there were a lot of bad news, so my father and my older brothers who were also there looked wary.
Advertisement“I want to ask you why you imprisoned Lilith in the basement room.”
“What did you say about Lilith?”
My father doesn’t seem to remember at all.
“Father’s Knights of the imperial guard, took Lilith to the knights’ building and interrogated her, and now she is detained in the basement room. The reason is that she tried to kill my father and my brother by giving them poisonous flowers.”
I reported the story I heard from Sanse.
“Stern received a report from Paul about the flowers, so he wanted to talk to Lilith himself just in case. That’s what he said, so I gave him permission, but I haven’t heard that they’re going to interrogate her.”
When I saw my father’s tail hitting the floor violently, it didn’t seem to be my father’s instructions.
Lilith has been awarded a medal as a proof that she has done her best for our country and has been recognized by my father.
Our unit was involved with Lilith on a mission and built a relationship of trust.
However, the knights of the Imperial Guard who are directly under my father and brother have little to do with Lilith.
Even if they have an ostensibly gentlemanly attitude towards Lilith, who was recognized by my father, it can’t be helped that they can’t trust Lilith, who is a human being, from the bottom of their hearts.
The Knights of the Imperial Guard are in a position to protect the king and the crown prince with the highest priority, and if there is any suspicious movement, they will move to protect my father and brother.
The problem is that without having any solid evidence that the flower given by Lilith is a poisonous flower, they doubted only by speculation, took the form of interrogation, and detained her in the basement room.
Perhaps on the same charge, if Lilith was not a human, they would have listened to the story at the mansion and kept a guard so as not to let her leave the mansion.
Lilith’s innocence is obvious, and I want to release her right away.
However, no matter how much I am a member of the royal family, I belong to the Knights of another department, so I can’t interfere with the decision made by my father and my brother’s direct knights of the imperial guard, and I have no choice but to talk to my father directly.
“Father, please give me permission to release Lilith immediately.”
“Of course. And Ethan, call Stern immediately.”
“Understood.”
While my father was writing the permit, Stern came.
“I’m very sorry!”
As soon as he entered the office, Stern lowered his head deeply.
“What are you apologizing about?”
My father’s tone is calm, but his tail is still hitting the floor as hard as ever.
“Princess. I thought Princess Lilith was a criminal even though she was innocent and detained her.”
“How did you know she was innocent?”
“It is said that the flower that was thought to be a poisonous flower has a feature on the back of the leaves, and the flower given by the Princess does not have that feature. And Lord Crane showed me the flowers directly, and he pointed it out.”
“It was Paul who was suspicious about the flowers.”
“Yes, but I couldn’t believe everything. I’m sorry. I will accept any punishment.”
When my father glanced at Stern, he made a dignified voice.
“Then, I will order all the Kingdom Knights, including the Knights of the Imperial Guard. Take turns to be Lilith’s exclusive escort for a week, one by one every day. You understand the meaning of an exclusive escort, Stern. I’ll release Lilith, so you’re going to start now.”
“Understood.”
Stern saluted.
With all the Knights of the Kingdom, my father seems to have made a very decisive decision.
The knights of the imperial guard include not only my father’s, but also the knights of the imperial guard of Timir.
Exclusive escort, that is to think about the escort target first.
It has a deadline, but it means giving priority to Lilith, not my father or brother.
Among the knights, the knights of the imperial guard are said to have the highest status, and the pride of the knights is also high.
For those who can’t accept the human Lilith, it will be a considerable punishment.
In addition, it starts from the commander who organizes the knights of the imperial guard, which can be said to be my father’s right-hand man.
My father is quite angry.
“Stern didn’t interrogate her alone, did he? When Stern ends his exclusive escort, next time, let’s make it the knight who followed him.”
The tone is as usual, but Timir is also angry.
“It’s natural, but anyway, let those who are in the upper position do it.”
Frair is also definitely angry.
I was also quite angry, but the anger of my father and older brothers was also considerable.
In the tingling air, only the sound of each tail hitting the floor violently echoes.
I don’t remember seeing them so angry until now.
Just knowing how much Lilith is doing for the country, it’s natural that they can’t hide their anger at the harshness of the treatment.
At first, when deciding the escort for Lilith from the Second Knights, all the knights disliked it.
AdvertisementSchnieser, whose sister cheated on me and who felt uncomfortable in the Knights, ran for the position, and his friend Sanse followed, and the exclusive escort of Lilith was decided.
It’s a mistake to be a human’s escort. The Knights told me that, but the knights involved with Lilith all seemed to be enjoying themselves.
If they come in contact with Lilith, the knights will be surprised by the kindness of her heart.
A situation like this should never happen again.
It’s a waste of money for the escort. And Lilith seems like she won’t want it, but if it’s Lilith who has Healer, it will be worth getting an exclusive escort.
I’m just worried that the number of believers will increase.
I hurried to the knight’s wing with Stern and my father’s permit.
Agar, who was at the entrance of the knight’s building, saw us and ran up to us.
“Gresis, do you think you can release the Princess? It’s better to hurry.”
“What happened to Lilith?”
I listened carefully, as if it was something unexpected.
The underground room is an easy place to express one’s true intentions, so the walls are made thin, so that when an unexpected situation occurs, everyone can respond, so that you can hear the voice no matter where you are in the knight’s building.
“. . . I want to see you, Gresis-sama. . . Gresis-sama, I want to see you. . .I.”
Lilith is saying cute things.
“She’s been calling Gresis’s name repeatedly for a while now. Maybe because of loneliness, the Princess herself is probably only appealing to Gresis, but you know, don’t you?”
“Oh, her love for me has spread to the knights’ wing.”
I couldn’t help laughing.
“Is it a time to be happy? It means that the Princess is so exhausted.”
It’s because of exhaustion that she is showing her love for me. That’s rude. But I’m sure she’s worn out.
I hurriedly took Stern to the basement room, showed my father’s permit to the guard, and made him unlock it.
Seeing Lilith lying on the bed, I ran up to her involuntarily.
Lilith, who noticed my presence, got up and hugged me when she turned around.
“I’m sorry. This wouldn’t have happened if I were here.”
Even if Stern comes to the residence, the evidence is insufficient. I would be able to say it. The flowers have already been tested.
Lilith looked happy and hugged me.
I explained to Lilith that she was proven innocent, and by the way, I told her that the walls of the underground room were thin.
Every knight in the knights’ wing heard that Lilith had called my name repeatedly. She realized that, and out of embarrassment, she started to writhe in bed.
Even that can be seen, but let’s not say it because it’s cute.
Because Stern and two other knights were waiting in front of the door, they had to wait for a while while me and Lilith were interacting, but their view of Lilith seemed to have changed considerably.
There’s no reason for the human Lilith to like me. It seems that the knights who thought so changed their minds on this day.
Lilith is completely in love with me.
I think I’m more in love with her, but I’m glad they recognized it correctly.
I always like seeing the chapters from a different point of view.
I hope you enjoyed this chapter and thank you for reading!
