"Lord Qwass, this man is the future husband of both myself, Princess Liana and Princess Anne," Alice spoke with a sharp tone, her eyes narrowed into a sharp glare. "Watch your words."
"Duchess Alice..."
Qwass seemed shocked by the words, his mouth open wide and his eyes darting between the two. Once he confirmed the truth, he shook his head. "I see—forgive my rude actions. Lord Asmodeus."
"I would have thought the same for you, Lord Qwass." Asmodeus curled his lips, an amused smile as he stepped closer, noticing the Empress and Alice standing quietly together. "I guess you have been pardoned for your crimes..."
"Haa... you've grown well. I must admit it shocked me how different you seem." Lord Qwass looked strange to Asmodeus, a slight curl of his lips as she showed a wry grin. Though he wasn't mocking Asmodeus, instead, he bowed to the Demon King before turning to the Empress.
"Your Majesty, may I approach?"
