Chapter 571: This is lame

Veronika, being a trained knight, wasn't a surprise. Aries had already noticed Veronika's light steps. The said princess barely made a sound whenever she walked. But what surprised Aries the most was that Veronika entered the empire under Ismael's orders. 

It was reckless of Veronika to tell Aries her reasons for entering the empire since she could be considered a spy — even though that wasn't Veronika's intention. Still, a part of Aries was glad at Ismael's gesture. 

After Aries and Veronika chatted, the former told the latter to not let others know about it for the princess's safety. Veronika already knew that. Hence, they parted on a good note. 

With a bright smile plastered on her face, Aries returned to her designated room situated in the farthest wing that all the candidates deemed a terrible area. The Hyacinth Palace wasn't heavily guarded inside hence, there weren't many people inside the said place.
