“If you break it this time, you will be punished, Sister.”
His glamorous eyes rose to the point where he looked sultry.
“Then I’ll do something bad.”
“…….”
‘Please smile prettily and don’t say such scary things, Heinrich.’
After calming down the over-excited Heinrich, what’s next?
From a young age, there was only one answer.
Eat something delicious.
“…Heinrich, shall we drink milk tea together?”
I didn’t know if this would still work.

The road from the north to Bayonaire.
It was a road where he had to take the official teleportation three times.
It was at the teleportation point west of the desert where the squirrel with special magical powers appeared.
Feeling the desert winds, Kyle received a letter and gave the squirrel water.
He got a reply from Annette.
「When will you receive this letter?
The tail of a squirrel that ran from the snowy field is brave and has a strong presence.
Which is like a little squirrel boy.
Don’t get hurt.」
A happy smile spread across Kyle’s lips.
He was incredibly happy.
She was worried that he would get hurt, so he seemed to have the strength to not get hurt even if he killed all the monsters in the world.
In particular, his heart squeezed upon seeing ‘a cheering teddy bear’ drawn on the footer with her unique signature.
Kyle put his big hand over his lips and shrugged his broad shoulders.
“…How can you be this cute?”
Kyle’s cheeks turned red.
At that moment, #19, who was spying on the letter from behind his back, said sarcastically.
“Aww, are you so moved by those three lines?”
“…….”
“You wrote your letter all night long, sending a few pages. If the answer came in three lines, wouldn’t it be almost a kick? Oh my gosh, I’ll talk to my neighbor next door much longer than that.”
“She puts a lot into her short sentences.”
Kyle glared at #19, his eyes gleaming eerily.
“And it’s not three, but four.”
She also drew a bear here.
Look carefully.
#19 went like, ‘Yes…’ with cloudy eyes. He looked at the man in love. It was very, very serious.
It was then.
One-eye, who was contacting the communication district on one side, quickly approached and called Kyle.
“Master. I got a call from headquarters. It is said that they found out who issued the imperial order.”
“Report.”
“…Well, this time, it’s done by someone unusual.”
“Who?”
Who misunderstood that it was a griffin, ignorantly, and gave the order?
One-eyed lowered his head and said,
“It’s ‘His Highness the Crown Prince’.”
“……!”
“It is said that His Highness gave the order, even stamping it himself.”
Sislin von Axelferion?
Kyle’s dark green eyes deepened.
‘He can’t be mistaken.’
The Sislin that Kyle knew was a natural commander of the battlefield.
Although rumors had been circulating that his mind had been torn apart after his visit to the Crevasse, the authenticity was unknown—
At least, he wasn’t an incompetent person who could cause misunderstandings on the battlefield or on a dispatch order.
‘Not long ago, the Fris Empire was captured.’
The cause was even ‘Annette’.
When Kyle found out about it, he was quite shocked.
Because he had no idea he wanted her.
He knew they were from the same Forest, but what happened between them as children was unknown…
…Since Sislin and Kyle didn’t have overlapping times in the Forest.
―After hearing the news of the war.
Upon closer inspection, it was said that Annette took care of Sislin quite a bit in the Forest.
Kyle came to this conclusion.
The crown prince must have been constantly looking for Annette under the water.
As Annette requested, he removed the escorts around <Little Bakery>, but just in case, he reinforced the surrounding several times.
A few days later, he received orders from the imperial family.
The northern border was the farthest place from Bayonaire among the Demonic Zones.
‘Is this really a coincidence?’
It seemed that the crown prince sensed something and played a prank.
‘How dare you.’
Kyle smiled with cold eyes. His lips were twisted into a cruel smile.
“…That son of a gun.”
‘I must protect Annette.’
Kyle clenched his fists and turned his body around.
“We’re going back to Bayonaire right now. As soon as possible!”
“Yes!”
The black sand of the desert engulfed the rough men.

Very late at night.
Heinrich, who was drinking milk tea, put the cup down on the saucer.
Click, the sound was particularly loud.
“Sister.”
Heinrich leaned in and looked at me.
Then, he whispered, his purple eyes subtly glimmering.
“I, today, can I sleep here?”
The corners of his lips raised strangely as he spoke those absurd words.
