“Viola, Duke of Lesserhain. It must have been difficult to travel all the way here,” said the current king of the Istiah Kingdom upon a luxurious chair. The king was in his forties and looked in good health, a head full of black and golden locks.

The woman sitting next to him was Queen Marion. She had blonde hair and blue eyes, as well as a soft smile on her beautiful face. Prince Ars stood to the right of the king, and Princess Diana to the left of the queen.

“We are glad to see you in good health, Your Majesty the King, Your Majesty the Queen. We would like to congratulate Your Highness the Crown Prince on his eighteenth birthday,” Elst said.

The duke and duchess then talked with the king and queen for a while. 

Eventually, the King called Rupheus closer, followed by Vio. He said to Vio, “I haven’t seen you in a while, but now you resemble Viola. I heard that you are resting due to your illness… Has your condition improved?”

Rupheus answered in Vio’s stead, saying, “He’s still unwell. Even so, we are deeply grateful for Your Majesty’s concern.”

“Many thanks, Your Majesty,” said Vio.

Crown Prince Ars then took a step forward. With his golden eyes, proof of the Verdurous Spirit Yuglena’s protection, and black hair inherited from his father, he resembled the king to a high degree. He had a reputation for being a wise, fair, and heroic prince. His eyes shone brightly, showing his strong will.

“I’m grateful to Violant for coming here for my birthday celebration despite his illness. Legion also looks healthy. That’s wonderful.”

“This one humbly thanks Your Highness for your kind words, honoured to have received the invitation for such a joyous occasion,” Vio replied.

Ars nodded in satisfaction. “Please enjoy the party.”

With Ars’ words, they finished their greeting. Only the duke and duchess were asked to stay a little longer to chat. Rupheus, Vio, and Legion thus excused themselves.

“Stay in the corner, trash,” Rupheus said close to Vio’s ears as they parted, gesturing at the  corner with his chin. Fed up with him in secret, Vio bowed politely and headed to the spot close to the wall with Legion. It was far away from Rupheus, and many lower-ranked nobles were gathered there.

“Lord Violant, don’t you think he’s too excessive with the way he’s treating you?”

“Shh, Legi. You don’t know who could be eavesdropping. Keep your frustration hidden. But you don’t have to worry about what Brother just said. You’re a great knight.” A slight smile on his lips, Vio tapped Legion’s arm. 

Legion relaxed his expression a shade. “I’m really no match for you, Lord Violant.”

His mood seemed to have improved. Although Vio understood Legion’s feelings, he had gotten used to Rupheus’s attitude since young.

Vio spotted a knight from the Knights of Green Flash by the table with refreshments. “Legion, I’m sorry, but could you bring me a drink? I’m a bit tired.”

“Yes!”

“I’ll be waiting here, so take your time.”

“Huh? …Ah, thank you for your concern.” Noticing Vio’s intention, Legion bowed and headed toward the table. Vio sat down on a chair. Sighed. He was nervous about meeting the members of royalty. If he made a mistake, his father and brother would blame him without a doubt. As such, he wanted to avoid them as much as possible.

Since they told me to stay quiet in a corner, that means I don’t have to greet the other nobles. So can I just retire to the waiting room… Vio watched as Legion reunited with his old friends. As the knights chatted, they glanced at Vio.

“Sir, I could guide you to the waiting room if you’re feeling unwell.”

Vio looked up, thinking a chamberlain had called out to him. It turned out it was Cheval. He wore a navy blue uniform, a red rose pinned to his left side of his chest. The flower suited his outfit, giving him the appearance of a playboy.

“Ah, Sir Cheval. No, it’s fine, thank you,” said Vio. “I’m only resting a little. Do you have guard duty at the moment?”

“Yes, I’m currently in the middle of patrol. But how unusual. Where’s that faithful dog?” After scanning the surroundings nonchalantly, Cheval spotted Legion talking to his friends. He then smiled. “You’re kind, Lord Violant. I envy Legi.”

“Is that so? I’m troubling him by having him serve as my knight. I’ve been telling him to return to the Royal Knights, but he won’t listen to me.”

“Ah, that would be difficult.”

“Is it difficult to rejoin them?”

“I mean, it’s impossible for him to do that because he’s ridiculously devoted to you, his master,” said Cheval. “Well then, I’ll have to excuse myself now. Before Legi sets his eyes on me.”

“Ah…”

After Cheval had taken his leave, it didn’t take long before Legion returned. “Lord Violant, I brought you a drink.”

“Thank you.”

“What were you talking about with Cheval?”

Vio accepted the glass of water and smiled. “About how you are ridiculously devoted to your master.”

“Is that so…” Legion sent a light glare toward Cheval’s retreating back. But in a flash, he moved to stand straight by Vio’s right.

“Legi, have you finished talking to your friends?”

“Those three knights are my seniors, not friends. I have greeted them properly.”

“I see,” said Vio. “Then that’s good. You have to find a chance to greet the Royal Knights too, okay?”

“Yes. Thank you for your consideration,” Legion replied. No matter how much time had passed, Legion was as morally upright as ever. Amidst this thought, Vio scanned the banquet hall.

He spotted a blonde woman smiling with her entourage in one of the prominent seats, opposite of the Lesserhains. She was Princess Liona of the Ruslan Kingdom.

She’s beautiful, just as the manga described…

Eyes bright with curiosity, Vio watched. Then he noticed a black-haired knight standing beside her as her escort, one that was reminiscent of a shadow. Perhaps this was the protagonist of the manga, Night. By this time, he should’ve been promoted from a mercenary to a knight by assisting Liona.

Vio quickly averted his eyes.

“Lord Violant? Is there anything I can do to help you?” asked Legion.

“Uh. I feel unwell. Let’s retire to the waiting room.”

“I understand. I’ll escort you.” Legion took the glass from Vio’s hand and handed it over to a waiter. As Legion led him to the waiting room, Vio stole another glance in Liona’s direction. 

Night wasn’t looking at him anymore.

Waahhh, spooky. ⸜( ⌓̈ )⸝

Since they are the protagonists of the manga, they should be nice guys, right? Right?
