Clarissa's eyes widened as she witnessed a black thorn whooshed past Havina's face. If she didn't evade, her face would have been ruined by it. Moreover, someone had already blatantly attacked the princess! However, Artie just laughed out along with Havina who seemed to be even taunting the person they were talking about.
The knight was around, and he had the audacity to attack the princess. However, his action was taken lightly by the princess and the archduchess. Moreover… a black thorn…
"Artie—" Clarissa's words had already left her words before she could even remember to address her properly. However, since the archduchess turned to her with a face that had no traces of anger, Clarissa continued. "Is… is the soldier seen in the company of Marissa...?"
"The prince?" Artie then placed a finger across her own lips. "Shhh, it's a secret, okay?"
