Evidently, it was a tradition in the country of Klingate to eat breakfast together with your family, even for those of noble birth. During her stay here, Claudia had taken to enjoying the morning meal every day with the members of the royal family in their luxurious dining hall.

This morning as well, she sat across from Lewis at the dining table. When the king was the last to enter the room, everyone greeted him accordingly.

“Good morning, Father.”

“Good morning, Lord King!”

“Yes, yes, a good morning to you both, Princess Claudia, Lewis.”

Smiling, the king sat down in the chair his servant had pulled out for him. Then he addressed Claudia.

“Now, tell me, Claudia, did you sleep well last night too?”

“I did! I was sooo sleepy after eating dinner that I slept like a log! Isn’t that right, Noah?”

“Indeed. I can personally attest to the princess’s deep, restful sleep,” he replied quietly as he stood by her side.

The truth was, they’d been awake late into the night, maneuvering behind the scenes. But that was a secret.

None the wiser of their escapades, Klingate’s king naturally had no reason to doubt their words.

“Excellent. Lewis, I hear from my retainers you dedicated yourself to your swordplay and magical training as usual this morning. Well done.”

The king’s sunny expression was that of a good father. Lewis seemed positively tickled by his father’s praise, but when he replied, he did so calmly, with no hint of conceit.

“All in a day’s work, as they say, Father. Besides, my defeat at Noah’s hands yesterday means I must strive even more if I am to win against him next time.”

“Ha ha ha! I certainly would have enjoyed getting a close look myself at Claudia’s outstanding manservant. I wager you put on quite a show, eh, Noah?”

“You honor me with your words, unworthy as I am of them, Your Majesty.”

The king nodded in satisfaction before instructing his staff. “All right, let us eat. Ah...” He sighed quietly then, his sad gaze lingering on the empty seat next to Lewis. “I see Stuart won’t leave his room today either.”

For a moment, silence settled over the table. Noah glanced covertly at Claudia, who beamed happily as she pretended to be oblivious.

“Lewis, how did Stuart seem to you this morning?”

“As usual, there was no response from him. Since Brother has a tendency to stay up late, he’s likely still asleep at this time.”

Of course, he didn’t answer you.

The thought flashed through Claudia’s mind even as she said the prayer before meals.

Because Stuart isn’t in his own room today. No, he’s in Noah’s.

And he’d been asleep since last night, when they had “kidnapped” him after Noah rendered him unconscious.
