Alex was shocked; he still couldn't believe it. However, the situation didn't change no matter how many times he closed and reopened his eyes. Sitting across from him was the first princess of the Wolfang Empire, Eris Wolfang, Ferris twin.
''Ah! How have you been, Eris?''
Alex could more or less guess what she would say; at least he must hear her out.

''Sorry for the loss. You probably don't want to remember that tragedy, but can you please recount what exactly happened?"
Eris heaved another sigh as if she had expected such a question; no, even if Alex didn't ask, she would have told him because he needed to understand to help her as she wished.
''It was like this.''
