“Your Highness, what’s wrong?!”

 

Whack. Chloe smacked Rayleigh’s white hand, making him drop the necklace, and kicked it with her foot. It flew to the corner and made a strange noise, but it was not important.

 

“Look here!”

 

Is it poison? It was when Chloe, who was so flustered, grabbed Rayleigh’s hand.

 

“Calm down.”

 

His big hand twirled around Chloe’s wrist without difficulty. Rayleigh’s hands, which were tightly wrapped around her cool skin, were so big and warm that it was very vivid where he was touching her.

 

“Huh?”

 

Her pounding heart started beating a little faster.

 

“Because it’s me who’s surprised.”

 

Rayleigh pulled Chloe one step forward with a forceful grip. The gaze on her got closer and closer.

 

“Where did you get this?”

 

“Baron Clant.”

 

“Everything?”

 

“Yes.”

 

Looking at his face like this, Chloe was a little embarrassed. Although Rayleigh is holding up fine, she can feel the fever rushing to her face. I don’t want you to see me blush.

 

“Are you sure you’ve been to the real Baron Clant?”

 

The faint tension evaporated at once due to Rayleigh’s murmur.

 

“What are you talking about? No way, isn’t there only one ‘Clant’ family?”

 

“Roy. The Baron Clant employs a whole mercenary guild to serve as an escort.”

 

No wonder. The movement was a little different from normal knights. There was the subtle sense of incompatibility. Unlike Chloe, who has relaxed hearing his words, Rayleigh’s expression looks a little more complicated.

 

“It’s such a place, how…”

 

“What?”

 

It was a natural reaction for Rayleigh, who considered Chloe as an ‘assassin’ or ‘night guest’ that was just a little good. However, Chloe is the #1 Hunter in the North. Hunters from the Duke of Arne couldn’t even be scratched by outsiders, so the First Hunter was great. Chloe is puzzled by the degree of difficulty Rayleigh is assigning to infiltrating a Baron. She was resentful and dumbfounded, but Chloe had no choice but to be grumpy because she would be caught if she said something like the ‘First Hunter.’

 

“My God. I don’t know what you’re going to do. Is it so difficult to say that I did well, Theodore?”

 

Rayleigh also hardened his expression at her cold words. You really don’t like Theodore simply for being Theodore, do you?

 

“Huh.”

 

I’m not going to push you away like I used to, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to be soft. Chloe was relaxed while Rayleigh was staring at her. Chloe, folded her arms and raised her chin.

 

“Try it. Compliment me.”

 

I gave you something, so I gotta get something too. While frowning for a while at the proud Chloe’s appearance, Rayleigh shook his head and let go of his hand.

 

“You did well.”

 

Unlike what she thought he’d say, it’s a kind compliment! Unlike the ‘Theodore’s’, Rayleigh seemed to have been a man with common sense. Chloe’s gaze at him trembled.

 

“But Roy, did you happen to get any gold coins?”

 

…Correction. What is common sense? The shameless thing is as expected of a Theodore. Chloe’s softened eyes rose fiercely.

 

“What?! My God! Greedy. I’m going.”

 

“Hey, Roy!”

 

“Ugh.”

 

Be greedy.

“Roy! Wait!”

 

She heard Rayleigh’s voice calling her from behind, but Chloe didn’t look back. Who cares? She’s angry.
