Chapter 35: The Magic Tutor
It was the morning after my late night meeting with the princess. Vespera was already awake when Gina knocked on our door, asking us to get ready for breakfast.
"Nice, breakfast included? It feels like I'm in a fancy hotel..." I thought with a smile on my face as I got ready to start the day.
Gina took us to a guest's dining room where we met with Jackson, commander Thomas, and sub-commander Harvey.
"You guys stayed here too? I thought you were going home." I said to both knights who were sitting down at the table.
Harvey let out a muffled laugh as he covered his mouth with his hand. "Normally we would go home, yeah. But we still have matters to discuss with the king, and he also asked us to be here for your meeting."
A moment later, the maids opened the doors to the dining room and made way for the king and his family to join, and introduced them once more.
Following behind the king and the queen, there was the princess that had visited me the night before and her little sister.
"Princess Melina Sephyr and Princess Alexandra Sephyr." introduced the maid.
("Tch! I still can't get used to her name...") I thought after the princesses' introductions.
"Alright, we can be done with formalities now, it's time to eat and talk." said the king as he and the rest of his family sat down.
"It's a shame Darius isn't here today. I think he would have been interested in meeting you, Ichiro." said the queen.
