"Did anyone do anything to my body while I was fainting?" Ask Zyden flat.
"Doing something? ... No, I don't know anything like that." Erika replied.
"Isn't it my Queen who did something to my Master's body when he fainted?" Said Liya which made Zyden furrow his brows and made Erika confused.
"What do you mean?" Shouted cold Zyden.
"I don't know exactly what my Queen did, because she forbade others from entering her room while accompanying you alone for three whole days." Said Liya which made Erika stunned in shock.
"Unless I replace your clothes, I don't know anything else." Further.
"Li li li... LIYA! What did you just say! Why are you saying no to her." Erika was worried.
"Isn't that so my Queen?" Said Liya casually.
"I was with him as long as he fainted, but I didn't do anything weird to him." Erika defended herself.
"I... I didn't change his clothes because he was handsome or to see his body. But i.. that's.., it's just because I want to do it."
"Yes! I just want to know what it's like to replace someone's clothes, there's no other meaning to it and I don't do anything weird even if I want to." Erika was relieved by her reason.
"Pfft.., Ahahaha... My queen. You really got caught red-handed this time. Haha." Liya cried out laughing.
'it looks like he misunderstood my question.' Zyden thought he heard the conversation of the queen and the maid.
"Why are you laughing, Liya? Did I say something funny or was there something strange with my face?" Erika said somewhat furiously.
"Ahaha... No, there's nothing my Queen. I'm just glad you could act like this, I'm sorry to laugh at you, my Queen." Said Liya putting her hand on the chest.
"Well, I'll forgive you this time. But don't do it again, I don't like being made fun of by you." Erika Exclamations.
"Thank you, my Queen." Liya replied smiling.
"So Zyden, as Liya said earlier. No one touched you when you passed out except me." Erika said subtly.
"And I can't possibly do anything weird to you, I can swear on my father's name." Continue to be confident.
Zyden looked at Erika flatly, then he closed his eyes thinking again.
"All right, I get it. I'll see you later when we're gone! Then, I'll go to the room first to rest for a while." Said Zyden going past Erika and Liya.
"Ba.. well, rest before we go." Erika exclaimed somewhat hesitantly seeing Zyden leave.
"True Queen. Looks like he's allowed us to go on an adventure together." Liya Seru.
"That's it! Then, how did he know that my room was there. Didn't he just arrive at this palace?" Ask Erika curiously.
"I don't know my Queen. Maybe it was the Asteria god who told her or she used search magic to get back to my Queen's room!" Answer Erika.
"Right as well, maybe he used search magic to get to the room. But strangely, why didn't the mana appear when he used magic?" Erika added to her curiosity.
"Forget that my Queen. You called him by his name, right? Has my Queen recognized him as your partner now?" Liya cried out in teasing.
"Huh? It doesn't make sense! If I call her name, will she be my partner?" Erika denied.
"My queen.., you sound like you want to be her partner." Erika said with a strange tone.
"A. a. what are you saying Liya! If you say any more nonsense, I'll punish you." Erika was angry.
"I'm sorry my Queen." Liya.
"Already! Prepare everything we need on this trip, I'll take care of some business first." Erika. "When you've done it, meet me at my office, understand!" Further.
"Both Queen. Your orders will be done as soon as possible." Said Liya nodding and saluting the palace maid.
They go to Erika's work room in the opposite direction to the direction Zyden took to go to her room.

While in a spacious room with a lot of room furniture and super large mattresses. It was as if Zyden was sitting on the bed thinking of something.
"Heah... Things didn't go according to plan, damn it. It's all because of that goddamn god." Zyden was a little angry.
"I understand why he knows all my plans. But! How could he tell someone who had the highest position in my plan."
"Had he been my enemy or had he purposely told her that I would only go on adventures with Erika and not be able to get the spirit army in this palace?" He looked for a moment.
"Well... The more I think about this carefully, the more possibilities that can be taken from his actions." Zyden laid his body.
"Everything happened so fast when I haven't had a month in the world. Never mind, think about it later, for now I have to use everything I have."
"After all, I must kill the Demon King and his subordinates. I must not fail in this mission, everything that stands in my way will definitely be eliminated!" Zyden said seriously and began to close his eyes to sleep.
