Meanwhile, back at the fancy mansion near the castle. Alan sat across from a beautiful woman who made his skin crawl.
"My dear niece..."
"Who is dear to you, old man? You only feel your mother and sister to be dear!" Liana responded while eating a cute rabbit-shaped cookie.
'Heh, you act like a witch, but in reality, you're a soft little girl! Ryuji, please come home soon!'
The crimson beauty took the head seat and sat with an air of authority. In stark contrast, relegated to the guest seat, Alan looked bitter while his fear was palpable as he gazed out the window.
Kathryn stood in her full armour, a silent sentinel behind the princess, her eyes scanning the surroundings.
Alan returned the other knights to their dormitories and then came to his home to relax.
Only to find this witch waiting.
