"My condition aside, how about you? Don't you have anything to let me know? Particularly about Rei," said Ben.
"Ah..."
Hearing that question from Ben, the King is slightly surprised and not knowing how should he respond to it.
"For your information, I do care a lot about Rei as well... And I caught a weird trace of magic aura from her just now, don't you have anything to explain about it?" Ben asked, slightly demanding.
"Well... It's a bit... Complicated..." said the King who sounds slightly hesitant...

"I see... So... There is really a third party behind that Prince Ya huh?" said Ben.
"Mmm... And with how that tiny trace of their aura is able to affect the stability of my magic force while greatly distorting my emotional state which leads to that temporary mental breakdown... I believe that third party would not be anyone that could be taken lightly of..." said the King, with a thoughtful look.
