I left the castle and made my way to the Magic Tower.
The Princess and I didn't exchange a single word for a while.
"Humans are too silent."
It was so quiet that even the hatchling became fidgety.
What the Crown Prince had said still echoed in my ears. That he could entrust the Princess to me.
Those words bothered me.
"...Thank you."
"What?"
The Princess spoke first, breaking the thick silence.
"I was scared, but I found my courage thanks to you. I know again that I am not useless."
"I only told the truth."
"...You are a good person."
She smiled and stepped closer to me, taking my hand.
"I think I can entrust everything to you."
You can be thankful anytime, but why are you making comments that make me uneasy?
"Please marry me."
