When Abel opened his eyes, there was a girl in front of him.

She had long, sleekly coiffed blonde hair and blue eyes, and she was wearing a blue dress that looked like a princess, and it looked good on her. For a moment, the color of her hair and eyes reminded me of Fiiru-sama, but it wasn’t that similar. Fiiru-sama is somewhere between pretty and cute, but the girl in front of her looks a bit more juvenile. Also, the makeup is a bit thick.

“Are you okay?”

Sitting in the chair next to the bed, the girl chuckled and asked Abel, who is only halfway up on the bed.

That reminds Abel of the time he passed out. He followed Heath up the wall of the inner palace and slipped off….

“Oh, yeah.”

Abel replied in confusion to the girl and tried to get up and stopped moving as pain shot through his legs.

“Oh, you shouldn’t get up yet. It looks like you twisted your leg when you fell.”

He looked and saw that his leg was bandaged. As he tried to get up, the bandage shifted a bit and the girl stood up to fix it. The body naturally moved closer and a fluffy, good smell hit Abel’s nostrils.

Abel can’t help but stare at the side of her face as she re-ties the bandage.

Then, the girl looked at Abel, too. Their eyes met and their hearts thumped.

“What’s wrong with my face?”

Throbbing, Abel looked away and replied.

“Yi … no, I just, Fiiru, like, you look a little bit like someone I know.”

“Do you know him?”

The girl turned her head and came to closer.

“Yeah, but I guess it was my imagination. It’s not like he’s a woman to begin with.”

“I see. That’s good.”

For that one moment when the girl laughed that way, Abel felt a chill run down his spine.

However, it quickly subsided, and Abel thought that maybe it was his imagination that had just happened. Because there was no reason to have chills and fear. It was just that such a pretty girl was smiling at him.

He just somehow looked at her profile and kept in mind that she might look like Heath.

Then, Abel started to wonder who this girl is.

“Where is that place?”

Just not daring to ask directly, Abel asked where he was now.

“We’re in the inner palace inside the royal castle,”

The girl’s answer was predictable enough. Because that’s where he had fallen and probably passed out. As he was thinking this, he heard a voice from behind the door of the room.

“Fii-sama!”

The girl in front of him replied to this voice with a “hai”. That’s how Abel knew who the girl in front of him was.

She’s the older sister of Fiiru-sama, the one who interrupted the queen’s wedding and is now locked up in the palace because the King hates her.

This is her sister, Fii, the queen’s second-in-command.

(What! Isn’t she so freaking cute!)

Abel shouted in his mind, hiding his blushing face.

Rumor had it that she was so ugly that one glance at her was enough to make him sick of looking at her already, but the Princess Fii that Abel actually saw was pretty.

Even her slightly juvenile appearance is different from that of Fiiru-sama, and that’s good because she’s cute. It’s a bit of a bother that she wears a thick layer of makeup, though.

Even her character is very nice, just like when she adjusted his bandages. You can’t rely on rumors, Abel thought.

“I’ve brought some ointment, just in case. Oh, you’re up already?”

The door to the room opened and a girl with dark hair in a warrior uniform walked into the room. She was a cute little girl with hair in a bun and Abel had never seen her before, but her eyes were cold as she looked at him.

Such a girl stared at Abel and then turned her head towards Princess Fii and said

”Princess Fii! Let’s  just turn him in to the soldiers after all. There’s no need to hide this filthy man in the inner palace. We can just throw him in jail for trespassing to the inner palace.”

Abel cringed at the words.

He was engrossed in chasing after Heath, and that was certainly what Abel had done. Since he had invaded the inner palace where the side queen was, he couldn’t get away with it if he was found out.

”Oh, well, just relax, Lynette. It would be a shame if you stuck out or something. Let’s just let him stay here until he is healed from his injuries.”

“From the content of the story, that means that the person who was defending him was that girl, or rather, Fii-sama. I’m sure that you’re not the only one who has covered for me” he said, turning around and smiling.

“Don’t worry, the soldiers haven’t found out yet. The soldiers here often doze off, so I asked Lynette to disguise the sound of a bird falling to the ground. Once you’re healed, I’ll let you know when the guards are gone so you can go outside, so you can rest assured.”

That angelic smile convinced Abel.

This girl is not Heath. Because Heath is a mean, bottom-feeding, vile man with a bad personality. He’s not this cute, good-natured, good-smelling girl!

It’s a completely different person.
