章節 424: Chapter 424 - I will claim my prize

Broken and Lionell waited in a room with a round table full of food when the doors opened, and the figure they had been expecting finally entered. Broken stood as the servants lined up, bowing respectfully to the person who had arrived.

It was Princess Alora, her red hair and royal dress flowing gracefully as she stepped into the room. She moved towards Broken, who positioned himself to properly greet the princess.

"Good evening, Princess. I hope I'm not disturbing your rest by arriving so late," Broken said politely.

Alora smiled at him. "Have you been away from me so long that you've forgotten how casually you used to talk to me? What's with this formality, huh?" she teased, causing Broken to be momentarily startled before smiling back at her.

"I'm still learning how to best act as a member of the royal court. I guess I'm doing it wrong? My apologies, Princess," he replied, trying to adjust.
