***

I was reading a book I had borrowed from the palace library when I heard a lively voice from the door to the institute. Prince Ten’yuu had arrived, just as we had been informed he would in the morning.

I turned a page as I listened to the hustling and bustling get gradually closer.

“Hello,” I heard from behind me.

I turned around, pretending to have only just noticed him. I saw Prince Ten’yuu, his attendant, and two knights who were his escort. There was also a researcher, who I assumed had been chatting with him until now.

The prince stood at the door for only a moment before making his way over to me. I still hadn’t greeted him yet, but he didn’t show any sign of caring.

I tried to stand up to curtsy, but he waved me down. Then his gaze fell to the books on my desk behind me.

“Are you researching something today?” the prince asked.

“Yes. I am currently researching high-grade potions for curing status abnormalities.”

“High-grade, you say?”

“Yes. While I typically make mid-grade potions, after our discussion the other day, my curiosity was piqued, so I decided to do a little bit of studying.”

When I told him this, it worked as I expected: I managed to grab his interest. He looked over the contents of the book with much curiosity.

I mentally sighed with relief.

After my meeting with Franz and Oscar the other day, I had been racking my brain to try to figure out how to deal with the prince from now on. I had heard that he would be studying in Salutania for a whole year. I didn’t have any confidence at all that I’d be able to hide my true identity for that long.

So what was I to do? Perhaps it would have been best to just keep dealing with him the same way I had been. But I wasn’t willing to just spin my wheels until his time in the kingdom was over.

The idea my tiny brain came up with was to take action to put this problem to rest as soon as possible. First, I decided to try to figure out Prince Ten’yuu’s goal. Without knowing his goal, I couldn’t act, so my ignorance was likely putting me at a disadvantage. Information was key.

Also, frankly, I was exhausted. I was an anxious mess, always afraid that he’d figure out who I really was. Franz, Oscar, and I had deliberated a bit, but in the end, all we could do was hypothesize and guess. I was incredibly tired of having to walk on eggshells because of theories. Therefore, it would be far easier to figure out his goal and make choices from there.

However, I knew I might really screw up if I tried to be too aggressive. Thus, I decided to take a more passive approach. For example, leaving things in the prince’s view that might be related to his goals and thereby inviting conversation.

And so, I selected a book from the palace library based on my previous conversations with the prince.
