"Nice to meet you, lady Silverene and lord Grevevemit " Emilia greeted us.
"Nice to meet you too, Lady Emilia and Princess Alice" Silvy greeted Emilia and Alice while bowing to the Princess, in response Alice slightly smiled and replied" it is good to see you to, Lady Silverene"
I also greeted them " Nice to meet you too, Lady Emilia and Princess Alice" but I didn't bow my head to Alice, which caused a frown on her face.
I didn't bow my head to the Princess because that would be disrespect to the second strongest person in the whole empire, my father Duke Robert Garamount, in general you could say that mine and the Princess status were the same, so bowing here means declaring that you are weak.
Princess didn't respond to my greetings and glared at me as if telling me to bow in front of her but I didn't show as reaction, after two whole minutes of glaring she opened her venomous mouth and started spitting poison.
" I think Lord Grevevemit have high self esteem, that he didn't even show respect to the Royal family "
" No, that's not the reason Princess, I highly respect the Royal Augusten family, but I can't see any reason to bow to you"
Hearing my response, Alice got angry and released her mana on me, the atmosphere turned cold but it didn't affect me, cause my mana level was higher than her, because of continuous dungeon diving.
Seeing us unaffected, Alice got angrier and tried to release even more mana, but she was stopped by Emilia.
"Alice don't do this, it is against the rules of empire to attack a guest, look everyone are watching ".
Listening to Emilia, Princess Alice retract her mana and glared at me and said "You have to bow in front of me one day".
Then she left with Emilia, as Emilia followed Alice she looked towards me with the eyes as if saying that 'we apologize for the trouble'.
After the banquet we returned to our room, I took bath and was sitting on my bed, thinking about tomorrow, many thoughts were crossing my mind like 'what if I can't save her', 'what would I do after she died', ' if I need to sacrifice my life, will I be able to do ', ' if I died what will happen to Veronica and others', ' should I ask help from King', ' but I can't ask for help, because no one going to believe that there are demons outside the strongest kingdom '.
*Knock*Knock*
As I was sinking in my thoughts, I came out from my negative thoughts as knocking sound resonates in the silent room.
I opened the door and let Silvy in, before she went to take a bath in her room.
Seeing her smiling face, I forgot about all of my worries and decided that I will save her no matter what.
"Hehe, Greve you did great at the party, That Princess was very arrogant " Silvy praised me for my action at the party.
"Someone had to do this, and otherwise she will always think that she is special " I replied to her, actually I made her character relatable to one of my acquaintance from previous life, she was a real b*tch at first She liked me, when I listened to her every demand, but when I said that you shouldn't do this, that was the last time I saw her because she left after that single event.
*Pat*pat*
While I was thinking about my previous life, Silvy started patting my shoulder and looked at me as if saying that ' I am proud of you'.
Seeing her actions I couldn't help and started giggling, seeing me she also started giggling.
As I saw her laughing, my heartbeat stopped, I couldn't live without this smile from now on.
I grabbed her shoulders and looked at her eyes with utmost and undying love, seeing my eyes she closed the distance between us, and soon
*Smoooooch*
We kissed each other for a long time and then we slept on the bed while hugging each other.

Next morning it was the time for the journey, on which my life matters.
