The Third Imperial Prince, Ruppel Olfolse.
...For a second there, I nearly couldn't remember this dude's name.
"Ah, dear brother!"
"...Why does your response seem a little delayed? It can't be that you forgot about me again?"
I smiled brightly back at him.
Honestly? I did forget about him. Well, compared to people like Luan or Hilda of the Theocratic Empire, Ruppel was an air-like existence, after all.
"Of course that's not true, brother. I do owe you a debt of gratitude, after all."
That claim was true, wasn't it? This punk here was one of the 'other' siblings who disliked the First Imperial Prince Luan. During the Vampire incident a few months ago, he freed me from prison while hoping that I'd go on and create some havoc in the palace.
I asked him. "But why are you here, third brother?"
"I have a family residence located in between the border to Aslan and the city of Humite. Wait, have you forgotten about that too?"
"Oh, so that's how it was?"
