Inside Yu Palace.

Prince Kichiro walks over to Yuan, who is in prison. The Emperor and Prince Rendra approached Empress Jian.

"I'm gonna go to the dungeon, dad and I'll take a look at mom first." Kichiro said disappointedly.

"Kill Hanna. Find him immediately hang his body in the woods! For his body to be pulverized by a beast!." Said the Emperor with a feeling of annoyance.

Kichiro only fell silent then he walked away to meet Yuan. Upon arriving at the dungeon, Kichiro looked at Yuan who was crying sobbing.

Hearing the sound of Yuan's footsteps immediately stared at the iron bars. He saw it was Prince Kichiro who was looking at him.

"Prince?." To Yuan's surprise, he called out to Kichiro.

"Where's Hanna?!." He said with a deep feeling of disappointment.

"I don't know the prince, but please don't hate him. I am his loyal servant, Princess Hanna is not a bad woman but vice versa. He actually just wanted to demand justice, you already know that was not how Empress Jian behaved to Princess Hanna? I beg you not to hate him, you can punish me, or kill me is fine but I beg you not to hurt Princess Hanna." Yuan said with constant crying.

Kichiro looked at Yuan's face that looked so fond of Hanna.

"You think I'm willing to hurt her?! I love him so much Yuan! If the Emperor knows of his whereabouts then the Emperor will tell me to kill him! I hope he is okay, wherever he is. Don't you ever let me find him!." Said Kichiro with a wistful.

Yuan continued to cry sobbing. Kichiro looked at Yuan who looked very sad.

"I hope Princess Hanna is okay." Yuan Saying.

Kichiro was silent for a moment then he looked at Yuan.

"Yuan, the Emperor will not kill you. You take it easy, after Mother's death I'm sure the Emperor will be looking for Hanna." Said Kichiro who immediately left Yuan.

The place Haruka was held.

Haruka just fell silent, then her tears fell slowly back on her cheeks.

"I'm sorry, maybe we'll never see Kichiro again. It's unfortunate, isn't it? You can't kill me. Haha, to be honest I love you so much, so Kichiro, if we meet again before you break my veins. That's what I want to tell you." Haruka.

The Demon Prince looked at Haruka who looked very sad.

"What are you thinking, Haruka?!."

Then the Demon Prince walked up to Haruka who was chained to the wall. His right hand he lifted and the chain came off. Haruka fell down, then the Demon Prince caught her body.

Haruka looked very surprised. Then Haruka pushed the Demon Prince's body away from him.

"It turns out you can cry too?." Said the Demon Prince who looked into Haruka's puffy eyes.

Haruka immediately turned her face away.

"I thought you were just a proud and arrogant person. It turns out that you can show your weakness, why can you cry?! Is it because of Kichiro?! You cry just because of it?! Haruka realized, I'm here right now, and you're still thinking about it?." Said the Demon Prince in annoyance.

Haruka just fell silent her body felt very weak. His face was pale before long the Demon Prince touched Haruka's cheeks and wiped her tears.

Haruka looked very surprised, she immediately dodged and almost fell down. However the Demon Prince withdrew his hand and hugged Haruka's body from behind.

"Let go!." Jerk Haruka.
