Book 11: Chapter 29
What do I consider to be the most precious in the world? That would be Lucia and Nier. I also had to include Ling Yue to that list.
I could give up the entire world, but I couldn’t give up any one of them. They were the most precious gifts given to me after coming to this world. They loved me, and I loved them. They had given up so much for me. I wanted to protect them, too. I didn’t want any harm to befall them.

She’s an elf, so I would understand it if you said she needed to rest in the elven lands. I trust that Mommy Vyvyan also wouldn’t… Okay, I do feel that there’s a possibility there.’
The possessive nature of elves was extremely frightening. Their jealousy and possessiveness was so overwhelming that they would forego their usual gentle and graceful nature to face their old companion and friends armed, and they would definitely personally kill them. Mommy Vyvyan had made unfriendly gestures to Lucia since the beginning. She did stop after we got married, but she had been raising a new successor recently. I couldn’t say for certain if her possessive nature would burst again. There was a legitimate chance that Mommy Vyvyan might lock Lucia up. She might have done something in my absence. I had to confirm Lucia’s safety.

“Your Highness… Behind… behind you are humans…”
