After relaxing in the bath for an hour once Anemone was done with her 45-minute message, Anvindr poured Y/n a cup of chamomile tea and placed it onto a small teacup plate before giving it to the princess. The princess chewed on a whole chocolate-covered strawberry (without the leaves) while Anemone brushed and styled Y/n's hair in a one-braid braid (Similar to Raiden Ei's braid).

Y/n looked down at the black bunny plush she had on her lap. She quietly observed the eyes of the plushie, which was made of some green-colored magic gems. Unknown to the princess and Anemone, the plushie had two hidden cameras in each of the eyes of the plushie. 'I really like this plushie...but how come I feel like I'm being watched...?'

Then, a knock was heard. Anvindr looked at Y/n, who nodded, giving the butler permission to allow whoever was at the door inside.

The butler opened the door and immediately bowed before the 3rd prince, Isfrid Aqulio Frostinelle who was the twin brother of Y/n. "Greetings, my lord." Anvindr respectfully says.

"Anvindr...Is my sister inside?" Isfrid asked sternly.

"I'm...here." Y/n responded. Anvindr politely moved to the side as the 3rd prince entered the princess's chambers before closing it behind them. "Need something?" the princess asked.

"Well...I wanted to hang out with my precious sister until it's time to depart back to Night Raven College." Isfrid says, revealing the invitation to them.

"Wow, my lord. I didn't think they would invite you back." Anemone says, quite amazed by this.

"Of course, my dear." Isfrid smirked as he placed a hand on the table in front of Y/n. "I wanted to know if you'll be okay without me present for some time? Especially with what happened last time..." he asked with a frown, lifting Y/n's chin up for her to look up at him.

"Last...time...?" Y/n softly asked, not recalling what had happened when Isfrid left for Night Raven College the first time he was invited to attend.

Anemone frowned sadly while Anvindr grinded his teeth. 'I would never forget the state my lady was in...' the butler thought. When Isfrid first departed for Night Raven College, he took the seat of housewarden of Diasomnia after 3 days, gaining a bit of a mix of positive and negative reputation throughout his time there. Unfortunately, 2 weeks before the Spelldrive tournament, Y/n fell victim to an attempted assassination and was bedridden for half a year due a really bad fever since the assassins had fired arrows that were lit on fire at her carriage which led to the poor princess to be trapped in a burning carriage, too weak to pull herself out.

"Perhaps...it would be best to send my lady to the Blue Rose tower." Anvindr suggested. The tower was the very place that Y/n was recuperating inside, designed to be a beautiful cage where the princess would be taken cared of.

"Isn't the barrier stronger? I honestly prefer if you were too increase security at our door instead of putting her in that tower." Anemone suggested as well, not liking the idea of the princess being put in that prison like tower to protect her when there are certainly other ways. Shame that none of the males in the family nor Anvindr would agree with her.
