Rion was struggling to answer the Crown Prince.
The friend in question? It was Princess Iria Aventine. What would he say to the Qalagon Crown Prince?
He thought hard and carefully. What would be the best response?
"Yes," he finally spoke up. "They have known each other since birth."
"Was the friend from a noble family?" Arin Helev asked. According to him, Iria was the Princess of Jerivia and her friend since birth would be someone from a prestigious family.
Rion felt perplexed. If he lied and say yes, it won't be hard for the Crown Prince to find out that there wasn't any death from the nobles in Jerivia. The lie would be easily exposed.
While he was thinking of this, he noticed that Crown Prince Arin was already shifting his attention back to his Commander. He quickly looked at the bed and noticed something. Did the Commander wake up?
