The lunch with Surou went without any more breakthrough information but Zoemi couldn't help noticing that Kierul was having a good time, it has been a while since the black-haired attendant had seen his master's genuine smile.
The next few days were similar, both uneventful and full of strained anticipation for the update on the situation regarding the secretly brewing conflict.
After a week have passed, Kierul decided that she would like to have spent more time with the second prince ā to be close to a good source of information ā but her motives were blatantly obvious and pretty cute considering who she was as a person.
