Yuri suspected that Yekaterina might have returned in time.

Yuri, who had been observing her for a moment, sat down across from her.

“Yes. aluminum To what do I owe your visit?”

“You came?”

If he took into account her habit of drinking Helgrey Milk Tea without stirring it, but rather by swirling the cup, and the message about the necklace, the possibility existed.

In the past, a knight named Enox Seia had come to tell him about her warning.

“Why? adjust Am I not allowed?”

Yekaterina looked at him intently with her emerald eyes and a smile on her lips, and Yuri couldn’t speak for a moment.

Yuri, somewhat taken aback, saw her laugh.

“How was the war?”

“Difficult.”

“Maybe?”

Yekaterina took a sip of tea while looking at Yuri.

“Maybe…”

“Hmm…”

“The topic is too heavy. airport Shall we talk about something else?”

Yekaterina smiled faintly.

“I think that would be better.”

“No. altitude I tried to dissuade him, but my brother insisted that he wanted to test your worth and took it all the way.”

“Weren’t you the one who egged him on?”

“And when I won, how did he react?”

“That would never have happened.”

“Ah…”

“Your knight?”

“Then, Your Highness, what did you talk about with my knight?”

“No.”

“Are you… jealous?”

“Then why do you care?”

“Oh, no?”

Yuri shrugged.

“Ah, well…”

He didn’t mention anything about returning in time, just like with his previous life. crystal He treated her as if it were the first time they met, and she did the same.

“As you say.”

“Shall I serve more tea?”

“No, that’s fine.”

“I understand.”

“Then, I’ll take my leave.”

“Allow me to accompany you.”

“Even the atmosphere is better than that of the imperial palace.”

“Is that so?”

From time to time, some palace servants recognized them and greeted them.

“It’s too dark over there. sphere Surely because of the black magic…”

“Or do you want us to live here together?”

“I wish people from other countries were like you.”
