Bam!
The door was kicked open, and from the outside, Kael casually walked in.
"You're back, my friend?"
Erza slowly raised his head from the pile of papers, then gave him a small smile.
"…!"
Apparently, Kael was stunned when he witnessed that smile.
Then, his eyes flashed, as if he had realized something wonderful.
"Oh, you've finally changed your mind? It seems like you've grown quite a bit after I wasn't here for a few days."
The prince curled his lips, stopping his work.
Then, he leaned back.
"Not counting my previous life, I'm even older than you, Kael."
How fortunate.
Kael smiled.
To tell the truth, he was really worried that because of that thing called conscience, Erza would stop the plan.
If that happened, wouldn't all the choices and sweat that Kael had poured out be for nothing?
So, during that waiting time, he had come up with many brilliant ideas.
But thankfully, it seemed that now, Kael didn't have to use them anymore.
Slowly, he approached Erza's desk.
