The guard recognized him as they were told about him being the future husband of the princess. The Guards didn't stop Ryder. Instead, one of them escorted him to the King himself.
Ryder was brought to the Royal Hall, where the King was sitting on his throne having a meeting with his ministers.
The guard informed the Eunuch about the arrival of Ryder, who in turn entered the Royal Hall and informed the King about the arrival of Ryder.
Ryder was instantly allowed inside the Royal Hall.
"So you finally decided to come back? You know how much our daughter missed you? You could've told us if you had something to do but leaving without telling us? That wasn't good," the King asked Ryder, frowning.
Ryder took a step forward before he bowed a little, respectfully.
