"Your Majesty." Said the guard that was covered by the big black scarf and had just sneaked inside the dark castle to see the former king of Vredrevia who stood up instantly when he saw someone coming inside through the balcony.

At first, he thought it was Arthur which is why he got up from the bed this quick ready to hear the news of the emperor's death even though he has already lost hope about this after those long three weeks that he has not seen Arthur in especially after hearing the news of the older prince's execution but he kept waiting and hoping he survived somehow not because he loves, it's just because Arthur was his best weapon to kill the emperor.

Although he did not find Arthur he was enthusiastic to hear what his guard will say.
