Those words are surely not a lie and yet why on earth does she suddenly feel so uneasy? Kazuya must have realized something was wrong, since he held her tightly, "What's wrong, my Lyn? You seem quiet? I don't like it when I don't hear your pretty voice," despite those light-hearted words Lyn knew he was serious.
How does she tell him after what she just heard? It was hard to swallow her words on this matter.
She wants to tell him. Lyn didn't intend to investigate him at all. It was just something her guards automatically did whenever a new person made contact with her. Since the moment she met Kazuya, or rather the moment he appeared before her. Pupillam has been investigating him. Lyn wanted to tell Pupillam to stop; however, she became far too busy with Kazuya and dealing with how relationships worked. As well as her eldest brother's orders.
Pupillam will most likely continue searching for more and more details from now onwards. Should she stop her? Even if she gave the order, Pupillam would still continue doing so in secret, so maybe the current situation isn't bad at all. At least this way she could keep tabs on the information.
"Chief, Kazuya is here," she hears somebody call out.
"Huh? Is it that cheerful brat again? I don't mind giving information, but he could at least tell me.. " the old man looked over at Pupillam gaze and suddenly looked away? He suddenly got up, "I'm going back."
It was just brief eye contact, but Lyn saw it; she noticed how tense Pupillam had become too. Does she know him?Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Kazuya looked puzzled, "You're fine old man, hear me out. I came all this way."
Before the older man could rush of Pupillam quickly left her side and grabbed hold of his arm. "Wait, you know who I am, don't you?"
Ah.
"No, I've never seen your face before."
It was clearly a lie, the moment he saw Pupillam he tensed up. But what connection do they have? The man's appearance was scruffy, his hair and clothes are unkempt.
"I don't know any members of royalty either."
Pupillam, however, didn't seem phased, "When the three of us got lost, you helped save the Princess. I wonder, could you forget somebody like Princess Lyn? Mr. Okura?"
At that comment, the older man sighed. He turned around with a troubled and dimmed expression, "You're as loyal as ever, is this matter so concerning for you?"
"The Princess is in trouble. The Snow Kingdom people have their plans. I will not stand by, and idly watch them use her as a tool."
Lyn spoke up then, "Pupillam, who is he?"
"An information broker."
This man, is connected with her cousin? Then she didn't imagine it the other day. That guy is in this place also aren't you?
"Hey hey, what are you talking about? I don't know anybody called.."
Lyn's sweat fell, but nobody mentioned his name. This guy just gave himself away. Well, she supposes it cannot be helped. They did just show up here unexpectedly. Naturally, things are like this.
"Even if you feign ignorance, there is plenty of evidence that you met with him. The reason why you're stationed here now instead of the Mist Kingdom is surely because of him too," Pupillam took a deep breath," Just now you tried to escape too, aren't you hiding something?"
He's suddenly sweating a lot; he must be panicked.
"Why did you think the Princess was dead?"
"Well. .."
"The second Princess harmed her cousin and stopped his engagement. Those are the rumors floating around everywhere, right?" Rhys pitched in.
So those rumors are still being spread even after so many years have passed now. This place that's closest to her home is still trapped in this sphere of the past. But really, what stupid rumors. Harmed her cousin because she supposedly liked him. Harmed his fiance too.
How ridiculous, when Allen found out about it, he put a stop to those absurd talk. Nobody should be talking about it in public. There's an official royal edict about it. But it seems like some still speak about it.
"And you, just believed it like that? You didn't think that he was the one who harmed the Princess?"
"Wait." Okura placed his hand on his forehead. It was clear that the older person was clearly panicked and trying to calm his nerves down. "I understand things happened. But please look at things from my perspective for a second. If I get too involved, no if I agree to what you're saying I'd get in trouble."
Lyn immediately understood what he meant. The guy was trying to admit that this place wasn't safe.
"What do you two want?"
"A map of where the tablet is, can you make us one?" Lyn politely asked.
Okatsu frowned, "I'm sure you realized it when you stepped inside, but the main castle already controls those areas. That's if I do help you, I'll be conspiring an attack with you."
Despite how normal he sounded, Lyn could sense his fear. Lyn shook her head, "I'm not trying to stage an attack. The tablet is something important to us, while we can't disclose why we want it. We bear no ill will. Right, now you're the only one I can ask for help. We only need one thing from you, and that is to provide us the map. If you need to use my name to ask permission, then so be it. I don't mind exposing myself to danger for this matter."
Pupillam seemed surprised, "Wait, Princess."
Rhys covered the girl's mouth; he turned to her with a serious expression on his face. For the last few minutes, he had been awfully silent, and Lyn understood why. He was trying to assess the situation, see what she would do. This was the thing she noticed about Rhys. Unlike Kazuya, he would always wait and see until she made the next move.
"It doesn't matter if my name slips, if something goes wrong."
Lyn doesn't know how many people in the Snow Kingdom know about her. But she is sure that after what happened, people are learning about her.
"Your right, I do talk to him. We frequently exchange letters."
"A letter? How do you send one without revealing your true identity?" she wonders how her cousin can communicate with Okura despite the restrictions in K castle.
Okura seemed hesitant but nodded, "We use a certain spell, and since it is written in code, even if people see it they won't know. As you know that guy's people are very good at magic, so there is no chance of it getting lost in transit. If you wish to settle this situation with the tablet, you must ask him for permission since the area is under his jurisdiction. That guy, he...knows you're alive correct?"
Knows she is alive? Lyn recalled what her other cousin said when he dropped by, 'he intends to come here soon, and apologize.'
