["Young people nowadays are very passionate, right?"]
That was what he heard from King Faustin right after he voiced his wish to see the princess of Veanonia. The king was stunned for a few seconds upon hearing it, but then he grinned widely before teasing the young man like that.
King Faustin seemed to give a look of understanding, perhaps thinking that the young man had such a burning desire in his heart, and the man was even willing to travel all the way from Breviel to Veanonia because he couldn't wait to meet Princess Clementia.
It was just a misunderstanding on the king's part, and even if the tease was embarrassing, Prince Reigen had such a thick face, and he didn't bother explaining his true feelings to the man.
