MY BELOVED KNIGHT'S
THERE'S NO REACTION?
Edi who initially sat with Steven immediately rose from his seat.
"Am I going with Steven too, Mr Ernest?" Edi's question was immediately answered with a fairly quick flick of the head from Ernest, because remember how Tira emphasized to him not to let Edi follow his guard.
"Princess Tira wants only Steven to escort her today. We'll both stay in this apartment. If anything happens, you should contact us Steven immediately. You're only on your own today, so make sure you're more alert and alert than usual." Ernest said as he patted Steven on the shoulder.
In his deepest heart, Ernest knew he wanted Steven's current position so much, to be able to escort the beautiful princess who often stopped by uninvited in his dreams, and sometimes make him restless so it is difficult to go back to sleep, even though it is still night.
Huh, why is my mind so messed up? It seems like a good idea for me not to escort princess Tira today, so that I can have time to control myself before I embarrass myself.
Ernest said inwardly as he patted Steven on the shoulder, before he went away with his face slightly wrinkled, making Steven and Edi look at each other with astonished faces.
“Why with Mr Ernest? What's the problem?” as soon as Ernest went out of their sight, into his room, Edi immediately asked Steven.
“No idea, it might have something to do with his college assignment.” Steven's answer made Edi frown.
“Maybe, because Mr. Ernest got a lot of assignments after he became a student, and it seems like those tasks are not easy because Mr. Ernest is not a person who has a basic music. If I were in the position of Mr. Ernest, maybe I would feel depressed once and choose to retreat and return to Gracetian.” Edi said with his breath.
“Benat also. Didn't mister Ernest ever tell you his predicament? Maybe the book of isa helped a little?” Steven asked Edi, who seemed to be glancing at Ernest's door, to make sure that Ernest didn't get out of there and embarrassed them if Ernest knew they were both talking about it.
“Entahlah. You know for yourself that Mr. Ernest, although a friendly and kind person, is not one who likes to talk about his problems with others. So many years of being a personal bodyguard of the noble Alvero, must make it a person who must be able to hold back and keep secrets well.” Edi responded to Steven's words.
“For now, lord Ernest and lord Erich are indeed the ones who have the best abilities as palace guards, no wonder they can get their knight title from the noble Alvero.” Steven said as he grabbed his jacket on the back of the chair he had been sitting on, preparing to carry out Tira's orders.
“If there is a chance, we may have to ask Mr. Ernest what can help, so that he does not feel burdened himself.” Edi's words were greeted with a nod of the head from Steven.
During this time, both Ernest and Erich were role models for the palace guards, where their achievements and attitude in carrying out their duties as Alvero's personal bodyguards became role models for all of them, including Edi and Steven of course.
So long to know the figure of Ernest from afar, and finally being able to work with him for a long time, even staying with him made Edi so excited, he said, because he had a golden opportunity to learn a lot from Ernest about a lot of things, especially in terms of strategy and how to deal with errors in various situations.
It's just that Ernest's attitude that seemed to have the burden of the mind that he saw just now, made Edi feel also unsettled.
“Is there a problem in Gracetian that makes Mr Ernest difficult huh? May mister Ernest be well.” Edi muttered softly before finally leaving the place earlier chatting with Steven.

“Good morning Put Steven immediately fixed his name for Tira once he realized here he could not name Tira as a princess.
“Good morning Steven. Let's leave now.” Tira immediately greeted Steven warmly while getting into the car in the passenger section.
“We go straight to Anna's house to pick her up, her address matches the one I shared with you earlier.” Tira's words instantly make Steven's hand move to open the screen of his phone, and start running the GPS that will lead him to the location of Anna's house.
There was no reaction. Is it possible that nothing has happened to put my heart into action?
Tira said inwardly as she held onto her chest which seemed to remain calm inside, even though she was currently alone with Steven in the car he was riding in.
Yesterday, when Ernest drove him to dinner, just by looking at Ernest's driving back, his sturdy figure, and also his neat-looking haircut from behind, he said, it had made a subtle sigh in Tira's heart, but at this moment, no matter how long Tira looked towards Steven, she did not feel that anything was happening to her, especially in his chest that remained calm in there.
