When she saw Abel crashing off the wall, Fii thought that she’d put it away.

Abel’s fall was clearly her own fault for leaving the rope unattended.

In the mansion, the sound of guards banging on the door could be heard.

“Excuse me, did you hear anything loud?”

A yawn in his voice. Apparently, he was asleep and didn’t listen very well.

“Lynette, please. Go tell the guards that a bird has fallen’!”

“What? You’re protecting him? Let’s stick it out!”

Fii’s words surprised Lynette. However, Fii shook her head.

“I feel sorry for him. He looks like he’s hurt, too, and we’ll keep it a secret.”

It’s probably Fii’s fault that Abel is like this. She would seriously feel sorry for him if she stuck it out here.

“Please, Lynette.”

When Fii said this, Lynette was silent at first, but when she stared at her, she reluctantly agreed, “Okay,” she said. At any rate, Fii managed to drag an unconscious Abel to the bed, and then Lynette came back. She didn’t seem particularly suspicious. Maybe she wasn’t motivated enough to be suspicious in the first place.

“Fii-sama, are you going to let the man use your bed by any chance?”

“Yeah?”

“So, where does Fii-sama sleep?”

“You still have a room, right? I can take the couch if you want.”

Even if it was small, it was still about the size of a small mansion. As Lynette had said she was staying, there were still a few rooms.

”Okay… I’ll clean the other room and make the bed.”

A half-eyed Lynette was not happy, but she said so. As for Lynette, she thought it was a ridiculous thing to let Fii-sama sleep on the sofa. She didn’t know that Fii was slumped in her favorite chair in the common room when she was lounging in the Northern Quarters.

Lynette couldn’t think of leaving the room where Fii-sama would be resting in a suitable manner, and she immediately tried to get ready for it now. When Fii made sure that Abel was still unconscious, she said to Lynette.

“I’m going to go and change my clothes for a bit.”

“Why change your clothes now,” Lynette nodded her head.

Abel, who had injured his leg, had been favored by Fii, the master of the Inner Palace, to stay in the Inner Palace for a while.

The days he spent here were, frankly, heavenly.

He can’t get out of bed, but Lady Fii and Lynette made him a homemade meal.

(How lucky am I to have home-cooked food from such pretty girls every day?!)

“What’s that smirk on your face?”

“Well, well, well, Lynette. What do you think, Abel-kun? Did you enjoy it?”

However, Lynette doesn’t seem to like it, and she’s still staring at him. Fii-sama is quieting her down with a troubled look on her face. She’s a really kind person.

The shenitzel that Fii-sama said she made for him.

It’s a common dish in Austerns: thin strips of beef stir-fried in shallow oil. It’s a common dish in Austerns, and is often served in the dining hall of the Northern Quarters.

“Yes! It’s so good!”

“To be honest, it didn’t taste particularly good, but it was made for me by such a pretty girl. How could it not taste good?”

“Huh, good.”

Abel’s cheeks flushed at Fii’s gesture of smiling while holding her mouth in an elegant manner that is typical of a royal bloodline. Seeing this, Lynette’s gaze became more and more condescending to him.

But, since he could see that smile, Abel was sincerely glad to say that the food was delicious.

”Fii-sama, when did you learn to cook?”

“I’ve had some time while I’ve been here, so I’ve been trying to learn things.”

Abel gasped when he heard those words.

The rumor that she’s been locked up for a long time is true after all.

(Such a good girl…)

It should have been an open fact that no one had ever seen Fii in the royal castle. But, when Abel learned about Fii again, it looked completely different to him.

From the conversation with Lynette, it seems that even she is usually not here. That means that she usually lives here alone.

All the time alone in an inner palace like this….
