Chapter 45: CH 43

“Olivia and Cyrus should stay here. It’s a hazard area beyond this point after all. It would be dangerous if you two come with me and it collapses.”

Alan told Olivia and Cyrus to stay back at site No.8.

It seems he plans to lead the soldiers inside by himself.

Seeing Olivia didn’t protest and only stares at Alan’s back as he leaves, Cyrus smiles bitterly at her.

“Do you want to go with him?”

“I’m worried about Tiana…….”

“That’s not all right.”

“……I, I also wanted to take a little look inside.”

Of course, she meant it when she said that she’s worrying about Tiana but if she has to be completely honest, she also wanted to see the royal quarter of the White Rose Palace. Since the excavation work hasn’t begun there yet because of the danger of collapsing, it made her think that the place might be filled with new discoveries.

“Even though you are always well behaved, your curiosity can get the best of you sometimes after all.”

While saying something that sounds like she might wander off on her own somewhere if he left her alone, Diaroze grabs Olivia’s hand. On the other hand, Olivia started to get embarrassed at how she was being treated like a child.

“I won’t just suddenly wander off you know…….?”

For their security, they also have some soldiers with them. Naturally, being Cyrus’s personal escort, Colin is also present. It was embarrassing for her to be seen holding hands with Cyrus like this so Olivia tried to shake her hand off but Cyrus’s grip was firm.

“Aniue has been with us the entire trip right. It’s been a while since we were last alone with each other you know.”

“W, we are not alone though?”

Even though Colin and the soldiers are here, what’s Cyrus saying.

“It’s okay, they can pretend not to see us after all.”

When Cyrus tried to casually hug her with a smile, Olivia blushed and tried to get away but her hand was already in his so she was easily caught.

“Y, Your Highness, it’s hot in here you know……?”

“Just a little bit is fine. Let me replenish my Olivinium.”

“Olivinium…….!”

While her gaze wandered around as she was caught in Cyrus’s tight embrace, Olivia spotted Colin bitterly smiling.

(He’s not even pretending isn’t he……!)

“What are you thinking, flirting at a time like this.”

When she was wondering how to escape from Cyrus’s arms, she jumped a little at Alan’s angry voice.

When she looked up, Alan was walking back toward them alone.

“Eh, that was fast, Aniue.”

“When we reached the passage, they told me that it’s too dangerous so they sent me back. The soldiers are investigating the passage now.”

“What a shame. It would have been fine if you looked around a little longer, you know.”

Saying so, Cyrus reluctantly released Olivia.

With her embarrassing figure being seen by both Colin and Alan, Olivia could only keep her head down from embarrassment.

“Let me go!”

At that moment, a high-pitched voice could be heard from inside the restricted area.

“Ahh…….it seems that your theory is on point, Olivia.”

Alan held his forehead as he let out a long sigh at Tiana’s noise.
