▪︎ Relationship with Guest

Guest was supposed to be a pawn to give the country an advantage. That should have been enough.

By bringing them to his side through political marriage, he could advance the war favorably. He could even dull the movements of that enemy knight—Ravi.

That was all it was supposed to be.

But the moment he saw Ravi's eyes as he saw Guest off, For some reason, it bothered him immensely.

—Don't look at my fiancé(e) with those eyes.

If he were just a bodyguard, he wouldn't look at them like that.

Ever since he thought that, Seeing Ravi and Guest together became increasingly unpleasant.

—And then he realized.

That he does not want to let go of Guest.

I've realized it now. There's no going back.
