Chapter 51: Catching Villains

The door opened slowly and Lia stepped in. She bolted to a stop as she saw Lunari buried in an embrace with Ace and she swallowed hard.

Ace, who had seen Lia walk in and mount to a stop in surprise, removed his unhinged hands from his pockets, wrapping them around the princess while his gaze watched Lia keenly.

He pulled Lunari to himself and whispered some words into her ears.

"How long have you known Lia?"

"She seems a little different from regular elfs. No wings like yours."
