MY BELOVED KNIGHT'S
KEEP INSISTING
"Not for now Ernest and the others have indeed become your personal bodyguards? They should always be around you and take care of you, although I'm sure the security conditions in the Shaw mansion are assured, let alone Ornado who will be there besides us." Alvero said as he extended his hand to Deanda, so that she could help Deanda get up from her seat, because of her already bloated stomach condition, making her sometimes need extra energy to stand up, after sitting for quite a long time.
"Then, it's fitting, right? In addition to their bodyguards, there will be many guards from the palace who escort us there, so why do we bring Ernest and the others." Tira's words made Alvero slightly frown, while in the other corner, Erich seemed to put his ears well upon hearing the conversation between Tira and Alvero.
"The more people who are in control, will that be a problem?"
"Too many bodyguards will actually trouble the host. Let them stay here and do another job." Tira answered Alvero's question with origin, while also rising from his seat following Alvero and Deanda.
"Do you feel that Ernest and the others are not working well as your bodyguards? Why do you want them to stay here so much? Or maybe you have a problem with their existence? make you feel uncomfortable?" Suddenly Deanda who was curious asked Tira who immediately looked a little nervous.
"No. No problem, brother. Don't think too weird. Nothing bad happened between us. They've always worked well, and helped me a lot." With a hasty attitude, Tira immediately responded to Deanda's words.
Erich who continued to listen to the conversation while glancing at Tira, with a probing look, and began to think about whether there was something labor or wrong that Ernest had done to Tira, until the beautiful princess tried desperately to prevent Ernest from coming with them to escort Tira.
Since his arrival at the apartment Tira did not see the figure of Ernest and the others, according to Erich was already suspicious, because usually, Ernest who was so admiring and so submissive to Alvero, said Alvero, surely will soon welcome and pay homage to Alvero once Alvero comes.
However, not seeing Ernest's figure there, Erich could have guessed that Tira might not have informed Ernest that Alvero had come, and for that, he said, there must be a strong reason that made Tira do such a thing.
"No problems with our dinatara, everything's fine. I mean, it's better for Ernest and the others to stay here to continue their investigation, because because of helping me clean the apartment, their investigative work is being hampered today." Tira quickly tried to give them a reason that he hoped would be accepted.
"O, is that it? Then let my Al. We also want the intruder to be arrested soon, right? We also have no shortage of guards. So for now, it's good to let Ernest and the others finish their investigation." Deanda said as she walked beside Alvero who could only nod her head, and glanced towards Erich, who without Alvero saying anything instantly understood what he should do.
Tira himself immediately breathed a little relief when he heard the words of Deanda who supported him, which he was sure would be approved by Alvero, who could be said to almost never refuse the request of his beloved wife.
As soon as they got out of the apartment, some of the bodyguards who were initially stormed in front of the pint of the apartment, immediately followed them from behind.
"She said duke Evan also came to this place? Why don't you look with you?" Tira tried to divert the conversation so that they would no longer discuss and mention Ernest's anma, making it even harder to hide the fact that there was already something going on between him and Ernest.
"As long as it's here, before attending the mansion's dinner, the, Evan stopped by our embassy building which is here to see if there's a problem with the Gracetians living in the country." Alvero immediately gave an explanation to Tira.
"How's Alaya doing? I just heard today that she's pregnant. Ah... why doesn't he tell me about something so important...."
"We're new too, because it looks like Evan and Alaya are just realising about it." Tira who heard Deanda's response immediately smiled as she felt successful in switching their conversation about the reason behind the rejection, and she invited Ernest to go to Shaw's family mansion.

Has anything happened between you and Tira's daughter?
A message came in from Erich, making Ernest immediately pensive as soon as he read it.
Why would Erich write me such a message? Has anyone told her about the incident? But who? There was no way the princess would say such a thing to Erich. After all, when did Erich meet the princess? Don't-don't.. have they come to the princess' apartment? Why didn't Princess Tira tell me? What happened to the princess?
Various questions immediately appeared in Ernest's heart, making Ernest immediately reach for the suit he had prepared as an official outfit as the Gracetian palace guard, that was deliberately prepared to welcome the arrival of Alvero in America.
