Archie and Arielle walked along a path that was surrounded by a small forest and then entered the main road into the capital city of Nieverdell.
"What are you going to do?"
Arielle shrugged her shoulders, not wanting to answer. Archie glanced at his sister for a moment, then nodded in understanding. Maybe Arielle just wanted to spend her time outside the palace to get away from their siblings or… Duke Pellington.
"What do you think of Duke Pellington?" Archie suddenly asked, making Arielle clench her fists.
The girl took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.
"He's okay," she answered simply.
"Honest answer?"
Arielle turned to Archie and smiled wryly. "Sorry, brother. I… am a little unwell and don't want to talk about it."
"Oh ... you now dare to reply to my words, huh?"
