Chapter 41
"Your highness!" Daisy bowed slightly when I left my grandparents' house .
"Daisy? What are you doing here?" I asked slightly surprised . Daisy pouted cutely and blinked . "Of course, I'm waiting for your highness . That is what a servant does . "
"… You know that it's not the problem here . " I shook my head with an exasperated expression .
"*Giggle* I'm sorry your highness . You see, I finished my duties and I was missing your highness, so I thought I could come here and surprise you . "
I smiled wryly and pulled her cheeks . "Well, I'm truly surprised . " I then walked towards the carriage .
Daisy pouted when she saw my reaction, but she understood we were in public so it would not be good if we are too intimate . So, she followed after me and boarded the carriage .
"Return to the palace . " I ordered the coachman . He nodded expressionlessly and whipped the horses .
Daisy and I sat on the carriage and enjoyed the travel back . Before long, we both began to play around, although we made sure of not making too much noise and alerting the coachman .
But at that moment, Daisy put on a strange expression . She brought her face near my clothes and sniffed .
"… Your highness, what is this smell in your clothes?"
"… What are you speaking about, Daisy?" Drops of cold sweat slid through my back, but I did my best to keep an unperturbed expression . Unfortunately, it seemed as Daisy was pretty sharp towards this kind of things .
Daisy looked at me and wrinkled her brows with a suspicious face . "… Your highness, what happened while I was away?"
I searched frantically on my mind for a solution to this problem . I don't want to have another cold war with Daisy so soon .

At that moment, however, I noticed something outside the carriage .
Instantly, my expression changed .
"Daisy, something is wrong!" I exclaimed in a muffled tone .
Daisy put on a startled expression before understating my meaning . Instantly, her face turned pale . "… Your highness, what is it?"
I lowered my head and used Akashic Sight to analyze the situation outside . In a few seconds, a clear image of the situation took shape on my mind .
At the next instant, I let out a tired sigh .
"… They are moving very fast, huh . "
"Y-Your highness?"
"Don't worry . " I smiled and patted Daisy's head to reassure her . "Just wait for a moment, everything will be clear soon . "
Daisy looked clearly confused, but she trusted me completely so she nodded .
A few minutes later, the carriage stopped abruptly .
"… Your highness, we are here . " Came the voice of the coachman .
A nervous expression appeared on Daisy's face . If she could not understand that going outside now was dangerous, then she would be a fool .
She grabbed my arm and looked at me with teary eyes, begging me to not go outside .
But I simply smiled and stroked her face . Then, I shook off her hand and walked out with a calm face .
When I opened the door, the palace could not be seen nearby . Instead, we were in a narrow street on the noble district, filled with old-looking houses and without a trace of someone else .
"… What is the meaning of this?" I asked the coachman with a calm and steady expression . The coachman looked at me guiltily and moved his gaze away . "I'm sorry, your highness, I could not reject their proposal . It was more than enough to live a life free of worries after it . "
