Noel decided to clean up the annoying assailant cadets first.
âReally? To my ears, it sounded like you were harassing someone by exploiting the power of the Duchy.â
âI am young, so I must have heard it wrong.â
Noel smiled innocently and asked. âIs that right?â
Then the flustered cadets repeated gibberish only saying that it âwas notâ. In the end, they bowed deeply to Noel and apologized.
After that, he could see them running away quickly with hurtful expressions.
Well, since you were scolded by a child like me, your pride must be hurt.
But if you didnât want to be scolded, you shouldnât have done something bad in the first place.
If Rieta had been there, she would have been terribly angry.
No matter what anyone says, Rieta was akin to a hero of justice.
Noel grinned as he thought of Rietaâs face with her eyebrows raised, and then immediately remembered the person who was bullied by them.
The foolish cadet who didnât know the greatness of the Duchy.
Noel asked, lowering his head.
Then the cadet leaning against the wall raised his head and looked up at Noel.
The moment their eyes met. Noelâs eyes widened.
Noel, in shock, pushed his head closer and shouted.
But that was a very risky move.
Immediately, he lost his balance and began to lean out of the window.
Noel groaned in bewilderment, and tried to straighten his posture, but he had already fallen off of the window sill.
Although it was only one storey high, it was still scary for a young boy.
Noel squeezed his eyes shut and screamed.
If I fall to the ground, it will hurt a lot!
As he thought of that, power surged through his body.
But when he actually hit the ground.
Noel was surprised that it wasnât as hurt as he thought it would be.
Maybe itâs because he had spun around as he fell, landing butt first.
He lifted his head cautiously, praising his proud buttocks.
And he realized the truth.
Noel hadlanded safely on Elisha Maureenâs body, who was the cadet that was sitting leaning against the wall of the building.
He hadnât done so on purpose, but it was possible that Elisha had caught him.
Because Elishaâs hand was on his waist.
Noelâs face turned red because he was too embarrassed to receive Elishaâs help and to sit on his stomach.

He didnât know about other guys, but he didnât want to receive this guyâs help!
Soon, Elisha started talking to Noel.
Elisha spoke in the Kingdom language that Noel could not understand at all.
As he stared at Elisha, Elisha smiled as if he had forgotten.
âSorry. I was an idiot to expect that the Lordâs Kingdom language might have improved a bit.â
âIs that so? It is very unfortunate that we cannot confirm that.â
âUgh, Elisha Maureen!â
âIs that how you treat your savior?!â
Elisha dared to copy that part of Noelâs words like a parrot.
Noel lifted his chin slightly.
It was because Elishaâs face, which he faced as he came down like this, was really pathetic.
It must have been that he was being beaten before Noel arrived.
This time Elisha glanced down on his stomach, repeating the same words.
Perhaps he wanted to place emphasis on the fact that he had just saved Noel from a fall.
âI have wounds all over my body from catching the Lord.â
âDo not be ridiculous. You were just getting beaten up a few moments ago. You are here on the recommendation of the Duke in the first place, so why are you being told that you know nothing about the Duchy?â
âBecause all they know is that I am a foreigner.â
âAre you being beaten so stupidly for that?! Are you still Rietaâs servant?â
As Noel was arguing, Elisha held his hand near his heart for a moment.
âUh, uh? Are you sick?â
Noel panicked and hurried down from his stomach.
âYes. Itâs been such a long time since Iâve heard the Princessâs name from someone elseâs mouth . . . I feel as though my heart is pounding at that beautiful sound.â
âIf possible, could you repeat your words? I want to hear it again.â
Noel was worried that Elishaâs âRieta diseaseâ had developed to a fairly serious condition.
He is so moved by just hearing her name.
â. . . A guy that doesnât even write a letter, and he gets beaten up.â
âA letter, a letter!â
Noel recalled the sight of a gloomy Rieta, saying that no letter came.
If he had transcribed his feelings into the letter, if he wrote that he would have enjoyed nothing more than hearing her name spoken out loud . . . Â Rieta would have been so delighted that she would leap on the spot, at the front door.
