"The only daughter of Queen Silvia, that is you isn't it?
…Princess Ilrina?"
"N-no, I am not!", Ilrina said as she aggressively stood up, spilling the tea she was holding on the floor, "Where did you even think of such an idea!?"
"…Why do you think we've been treating you so well?", said Sofia as she once again wiped her spectacles because of the tea that got splashed on it, "Did you really think that I, a direct princess of the human kingdom, will sit in a single carriage with an elf?"
"This…", Ilrina's lips trembled as she tried to come up with an excuse, but after a while, she started to calm down and returned to her seat, "Is this why the Lord of that castle did not kill me when they caught me?"
"Oh no, you were just lucky", said Sofia before releasing a devilish laugh, "But to think the princess herself would rescue the boy…You must really value him?"
"Of course!", said Ilrina with pride, "He is the Great Spirit!"
