Chapter 121

Andrea returned alone to "A Cup of Sugar". No one talked to him, and he didn't look back.

He already knew he couldn't go to the palace together. Del, a possessed person who did not know the world before losing his memory, naturally thought Andrea would be able to go with him.

It would be better for Del to follow Hunter and become the Crown Princess. At least then, he would continue to stay in this world.

Del could log out if he achieved 100% favorability with any of the five male protagonists. However, Andrea, unaware of this fact, reassured himself that as long as it wasn't Cain, it would be fine.

He didn't feel bad or sad. Andrea had never experienced giving and receiving love from someone in his lifetime, and he had never even dared to hope for it.

So, he casually chatted with Victor, who was standing in as the substitute boss of "A Cup of Sugar", and after receiving a bundle of requests that had come to the Cruel Guild, he went to the second floor.

Seated at the desk in his room, he immediately began reviewing the requests. Every time he thought of Del, he focused on the contents of the requests. Most of the requests were resolved by guild members, but a few troublesome situations arose. Andrea had skipped dinner to solve those problems.

Day 2.

I caught a cold. It felt like all the fatigue that had accumulated over time exploded all at once.

Hunter summoned the palace physician and Alan. Cain had already used healing magic on me.

"The fever went down, but the kid's condition is still..."

Cain said, covering my forehead with his hand.

It was as he said. The high fever and muscle pain disappeared as soon as I received Cain's healing magic. However, there was no strength in my body, and my eyelids were too heavy to see properly.

The grandfather physician of the palace, who had left vague words about 'only time will tell' regarding my memory loss after examining me yesterday, examined me again today.

"It's just fatigue, but since your basic stamina isn't good...You should rest for a few days"

"It looks like you will be lying in bed for a week."

Cain said mockingly from the side. However, Hunter silently held my hand.

"If you need anything, just say it. It's a good idea to rest comfortably and sleep well."

Alan was similar.

"It's better to give you a rest than use divine power. You'll feel better."

Despite being in a mild condition to require only a few days of rest, the three men made all kinds of fuss.

After Alan gave a blessing and left, Hunter chased Cain away, saying that I needed a quiet environment.

"I'd like to stay by your side as a privilege of the Crown Prince, but unfortunately, the Crown Prince's duties are holding me back."

He swept aside the hair tickling my forehead and his touch was very gentle and careful.

"If you need anything, just call me anytime. I'll come running right away."

"What about the Crown Prince's duties?"

I asked jokingly, and Hunter lifted the corner of his mouth slightly, smiling. It was the second time I had seen him smile after meeting him.
