Phobe was in Leonhard's room, who was requested by him to teach her with his studies, she let him read a book of their history subject while she finally used her brand new sketchbook, drawing a scenery until her attention was turned to the person outside from her window.

Her eyes widen in terror again, seeing Licht walking out of the carriage of a strange man with sharp eyes like hers, who looked up at her by the window with the prince walking in fear

Then door was opened by Heine as he cleared his throat, "Excuse me, Prince Leonhard, may I borrow my daughter as she and I will be meeting His Majesty at his office?"

"U-Uhn.. No problem" Leonhard said, Phobe sets her sletchbook down the prince's table and patted his hair softly,

"Just continue reading, I'll be back in a few"

She jogged to her father as she closed the door, they both began to run quickly towards the office, their shoes' heels clanged by the tiled floor, as they stopped by door before the office's, where they met face to face with the strange man

He smiled as the men passed by, bowing at each other, him kissing the knuckles of Phobe, that she didnt expected and wanted to pull off.

Once he left, they entered the office from the guards opened it for them, Licht gasped as soon as he saw their faces,

"P-Professor... Phobe-Chan..."

"Did you know about this?" Viktor asked, crossing his arms

"I intended to discuss it today.."

"I see.. Well, I have already heard everything from Count Rosenburg"

So that evil ugly weird man was that stupid Count Rosenburg? Phobe thought with her hands gripped tightly from anger and a small tick mark by her neck

"I cannot believe you were doing this.. even considering your usual games.. this is too much" Viktor said to Licht,

"If I may, Your Majesty... I was observing His Highness' work, he was quite serious at it, this is no game.. but I believe that the prince's thoughts shoukd be considered here" Phobe spoke

Viktor hummed shortly, his hand under his chin,
"Oh? Explain yourself, Licht.."

"It was a game at first.. the ladies woukd talk about handsome waiters and I thought I coukd do it, too.. but when I tried, I messed it all up, but everyone taught me so paitienly, thanks to them, I learned the job and took a real intrest in it.. I wont quit, it feels worthwhile. I dont care what anyone says, I'm staying on.." The prince explained

"I certainly cannot allow that.." Viktor denied

"Why not?! Isnt it enough that I want to do it?"

"This is not the problem.. You're guaranteed a minimum of safety at the noble-exclusive halls you frequent.. If your identity as prince is revealed... No, even if it remains a secret. If danger befalls you in this cafe, I wont be able to protect you.."

"Listen to me, Licht.. You need to be more aware of your place as a royal..If anything were to happen, it would jeopardize the royal line.." Licht's eyes widen in terror, Phibe hung her head low, fiddling her thumbs together behind her back nervously

"Do you remember... when I was little and sickly.. you never came to visit me.. you didnt care about the fifth prince who could never become king... did you?.. Now you want to play the good father and talk about protecting me?.. What you really want to protect is the royal family's reputation.." Licht said as he stepped back, away from Viktor
