Friend…
What a fake term that was.
In short, what the fourth prince did just now was threaten me.
After all, he had said 'I would very much like to have you as a friend'. But if one put it in different words, it would be 'I would rather have you as a friend than an enemy'.
When he put it in such clear words, it was impossible for me to refuse him anymore.
But even if I did become friends with the fourth prince, as long as he lost interest in me, then that would be that. So I would try to keep myself as lowkey as possible so that he wouldn't want to include me in any of his plans.
Not to mention, that was my intention in the first place.
After this trip to the capital, I would just hide myself in my town.
To my surprise though, the fourth prince didn't go any further than this.
