Kapitel 109: You’ve become interesting, Brother

"Dame Nora is not an object, brother." Deon said as he picked up the thrown spear, "I can't 'give' her to you just because I'm her superior. So, we can't bet with her as a prize."

"Hmm? But what if she wants to go to my Order of the Soaring Griffin? What if she just can't leave your pathetic personal Order because you are her benefactor? Won't you give her to me then?"

At his brother's words, Deon visibly flinched.

'What if he's right? Dame Nora would have better treatment if she joins brother Cail's Order. Unlike with mine where she's constantly ridiculed…'

"Hey, kid. What nonsense are you thinking about? Huh?" noticing Deon's reaction, Mikael admonished the boy, "Dame Nora pledge loyalty to you. No one else but YOU. Do you get it?"

He did.

Prince Deon Hensworth did.

'Sir Mikael is right. Dame Nora is my person.'

'I have to protect what is mine.'
