Two-Faced Princess

“You’re saying all sorts of things to the person who sent six of her fiancees away.”

“Do you compare me to such people?”

Caelion smiled, as usual, not backing down.

Rather, he leaned forward until he was hairbreadth away from Apollonia.

He smelled a bit more bittersweet and so different from Uriel.

“Tell me, sister. Am I like them?”

He stared at Apollonia seriously as if he wouldn’t budge until she answered the question.

“You——”

*CREAK*

When Apollonia was about to say something, the office door opened and Uriel entered.

“It’s time to go back to the Star Palace. His Majesty will be looking for you if you stay here for a long time.”

Smiling as if nothing had happened, Caelion stood up to welcome him.

“Your ears were always bright.”

“I don’t know what you mean.”

The two exchanged mysterious words, but Apollonia didn’t care much.

Both of them, who had appeared as master and servant as a facade but actually close friends in real life for five years, quarreled often.

“Should I get up?”

When Apollonia heard Uriel and got up, the corners of his eyes crinkled when he laughed.

If Caelion looked gentle every time he smiled, Uriel’s smile had the strange power to bewitch anyone who saw it at that moment.

“Caelion. if you find anything strange about Rajan’s Princess, you can tell me anytime.”

Caelion shook his head and said. “Well, one or two. She ordered a huge amount of food and ate it all up. And, although it is less compared to when I was in Rajan Kingdom, the room smelled strangely of monsters even if I don’t see anything there the moment I entered.”

Apollonia opened the office door with a smile. “Make sure we have as much information as we need.”

After finishing her words, she and Uriel exited the office door.

“It was a pleasure to talk to you. Sister, please come and play with me more often.” Caelion flashed her a charming smile.

He was particularly gentle in front of Apollonia even if he was known for making their enemies surrender just by appearing on the battlefield.

“Don’t let the princess get hurt.” She said, thinking about Evangeline’s request a while ago.

Caelion tilted his head slightly and chuckled.

“If you’re that worried, come and visit me more often.”

He smiled, wanting to say something more, but she couldn’t hear him well because Uriel had already closed the door with indifference.

+++

Uriel walked with Apollonia through the garden, making their way to the Star Palace.

Unlike the usual, the two didn’t say a word as if lost in their own thoughts.

“Your Highness.”

It wasn’t until they arrived at the Star Palace and entered her room that Uriel began to speak.

His guards were up as he scanned the room once.

Was someone hiding there to spy on them?

Uriel couldn’t see anything despite looking around so he finally relaxed and sat against the window frame.

“What is it?”

“How much do you know about Rajan’s princess?”

Apollonia didn’t answer but she slowly raised her eyes and stared at him.

Then she smiled a little, her eyes shining as if she had found a treasure of gold.

Uriel smirked.

An idea must have crossed Apollonia’s mind upon hearing Caelion’s words about Rajan’s princess a while ago.

No.

She might have noticed it way earlier.

As always.

“I was puzzled. I didn’t think anyone who possessed ‘Milon’s Eye’ would indulge in researching monsters.” She spoke slowly. “Then I remembered what kind of organization ‘Milon’s Eye’ was. It could even find personal information and it doesn’t take a few days to deliver information from both ends of the continent.”

“It doesn’t make any sense——” Uriel replied with a nod before adding briefly. “——-unless it isn’t a a human being.”

Apollonia’s smile spread even wider as if they were on the same page.

“She orders a lot of food, and invisible monsters will come in and out of her room. Above all, if she had no problem receiving information even if she was isolated in the palace, there is only one answer.” She spoke quietly.

“Rajan’s princess had tamed the horse and used it as a source of information.”

Chapter 3. Two People Going Out

She had a little more knowledge of Evangeline, but neither Uriel nor Apollonia did something about it since she was already satisfied with the negotiation they currently had.

Apollonia had no idea what useful information she was about to give her but at least Evangeline wouldn’t sell hers to Petra.

As long as Evangeline was under Caelion’s control, she wasn’t a danger.

“Have you prepared your clothes?” Apollonia asked Uriel one day as if she was commenting on the weather.

“What clothes?”

Uriel asked back as if he didn’t understand.

“The clothes you wear to the ball. “Why doesn’t the person with the biggest achievements think about it?”

“As long as I have sleeves, that’s all I need, ain’t it?”

“You’re not wearing pants?”

Uriel blushed at Apollonia’s heartless joke.

He could sometimes be incredibly naive.
