Jerry obeyed Prince Edwin's orders to ride the horse. Out of the forest they hurried to the palace. Sunlight returns from behind the clouds and makes roads passable. Fortunately, they can reach the palace in time.
Ichiro and jirou ran over to both of them. It's true what prince Edwin said. Jerry only has enough power until they get to the castle. He had just come down from the horse, and he was knocked unconscious.
"Quickly take him to the infirmary!"
Ichiro and jirou quickly take jerry to the infirmary. The imperial doctor immediately took immediate action against jerry. Prince Edwin is waiting outside the room with ichiro and jirou.
"Prince Edwin, what is the matter with jerry?"
"I don't know either. He was in a very bad way when I found him."
"Prince Edwin!" Princess Alice calls from a distance. With an expression of concern, he approached prince Edwin. Meanwhile, ichiro and jirou only look at each other because they don't understand the situation that's going on.
Before long, the imperial doctor came out of the infirmary. Alarmed, princess Alice went inside without permission. The physician told prince Ken that jerry didn't have much time left to live.
"Just a matter of time until next week."
Prince Edwin is sad now. He saw his anxious sister waiting for Jerry to wake up. He couldn't bear to see his sister fall back sad at the loss of a beloved man. Now he went to princess Alice to comfort her.
"You don't have to worry, Alice. Let him rest."
Princess Alice let go of jerry's hand that she had held so long. "Has anything bad happened to Jerry?" he asked prince Edwin.
"I have saved him. You believe me, don't you?"
Prince Edwin couldn't bear to share the facts. Perhaps, for a time, he would hide from his sister.

Megi has just come out of the throne room of king luis. She walked past several servants who were chatting. Vaguely, she heard the servants talking.
"How sad for him. Just got jacked ...."
"Yes. Should be... so he can live."
"Unfortunately unhappy ... a week left."
There's a lot of words he can't hear because he's walking along. He didn't expect to hear such a sad thing. A man? What's a week left? And who is the man? He walked along pondering the questions. Until he accidentally ran over prince Edwin walking with princess Alice. Megi apologized immediately and got the hell out of there.
Princess Alice felt something strange about her older brother's behaviour that didn't take his eyes off megi. The man in front of her also smiled to himself at megi.
"You like that woman?" asked princess Alice, making prince Edwin look back at her. "I knew it," said princess Alice with a dirty smile.
"Hey! What's with the smile? Are you mocking me?"
"No."
"If you don't mock, why do you smile like that?"
"I just want to."
"Just watch yourself!"
While prince Edwin was busy questioning the meaning of his brother's smile, his second step halted simultaneously to see someone who had just entered the gates of horathomi's palace. Someone she hasn't seen in seven years. That man is prince Ken. For whatever reason he came to Horathomi's Palace.
At any rate, neither of them expected prince Ken to return to Horathomi's Palace.
"How are you, Prince Edwin ... and Princess Alice? Long time no see," said prince Ken with a friendly smile.
Princess Alice smiled awkwardly. "Oh, yeah. Welcome back."
"Wow! You've finally come!" said prince Edwin, hugging prince Ken. He seemed pleased upon the arrival of his dear friend. Meanwhile, princess Alice even hurried to say good-bye to him because of an unfathomable awkwardness.
Prince Edwin took prince Ken to his Chambers for a leisurely talk there.
Prince Ken and prince Edwin spoke of many things. About things they did for seven years after princess Alice broke off the engagement. From prince Edwin to the sharpening of his sword, to prince Edwin to caring for his father's empire. The two of them just chitchat till they lose track of time.
Prince Edwin looked in the window. "The sky is getting dark. Have dinner with us before you go home."
"No need. I feel bad for your sister. He certainly can't eat in my presence."
Prince Edwin nodded in understanding. "You still like my sister?" he asked.
Prince Ken seemed to think. "I'm trying to forget. But it seems that meeting her this time is making it harder for me to cope with my feelings."
"Be patient, someday you'll get a much prettier woman than my sister."
Prince Ken smiled happily. "Edwin, I've heard from my father that seven years ago you sent Jerry to the forbidden forest to exile."
"You're right. I sent him there for a reason."
Prince Ken suddenly remembered something. "Is this ... related to Jerry's spirit power?"
Prince Edwin, who first wanted to lift the cup, is now broken. He looked at Prince Ken with a serious look. Curious what prince Edwin meant. "Do you know about anything?"

TENG!
TENG!
TENG!
The chiming clock in the middle of the night was heard all over the room. For those of you who haven't slept, this might not be a good time to get out of the room. However, not princess Alice. He snuck out in a guard suit he was wearing. Without a sound, he slipped into the infirmary.
But the weird thing is, when he opened the door, there was no one in there. "Where's Jerry going?" she mumble. He turned around and jumped back, only to look at a person's breasts directly in front of his face.
"Princess Alice, on a night like this, it's bad to come out of the room. Nobody knew what would happen outside the room," Jerry counseled.
Princess Alice was silent for some time. "Jer-- Jerry! Are you really awake? Thanks God." He hugged Jerry reflectively.
Jerry was speechless. A woman hugged him with worry. For the first time, he felt this way. He hugged princess Alice back. Laid his chin on princess Alice's head.
