82. Prince Adro Is Back
Adro gazed at the clear sky above him. His eyes squinted to shield his crystal irises from the piercing sunlight.
"We're lucky. It's still quite early, around eleven in the morning in the modern world." Adro said, lowering his gaze.
Grace's eyebrows shot up. "How do you know? Even my watch isn't working here," she glanced at her watch, which had stopped ticking since they arrived in this world.
"I just need to observe the position of the sun and the moon," Adro explained, pulling a broad smile. "If you find that impressive, believe me, this is just the beginning."
“Well, it is impressive, but I hope I don't have to witness anything more impressive if it means you have to resort to violence," Grace replied.
"I'm sorry, but I can't promise that. In this place, the only way to protect oneself is through violence. You have to kill if you don't want to be killed."
"It sounds dreadful, but I understand. Do what you think is right, Adro. This

Adro raised both of his hands beside his body, followed by Grace."Do not shoot. It's me, Adro, your eldest prince." Adro declared with a slightly loud voice, stepping closer to the soldiers who had arrows aimed at him."Your Highness?" The commander stepped forward. His eyes narrowed. "Is it really you?"Adro smiled. "It's me, Maxim. My hair may have changed, but it's genuinely me.""Based on what, can we believe that you are the real Prince Adro? The witches have played many tricks and caused chaos. Do you think we'll wholly believe you?"A chuckle escaped Adro's lips as he continued to smile. He nodded. "I understand. That's what you have to do. You're a critical commander, Maxim; that's why you were chosen to safeguard the eastern region of the kingdom. But believe me, I am Adro. I was trapped by a witch on my wedding day.""If your words are true, why do you look so calm now? I believe worry is the only reaction from a groom who acciden

"Lover?"Adro's parents stared at each other with furrowed brows, while Grace could only hold her breath.From what she had heard during her time with Adro, Grace learned that people in the kingdom where he came from didn't greet women. That's why she just slightly bent her knee and bowed. The only thing that kept her from a panic attack was Adro's warm hand gripping hers firmly."What do you mean byLover, my son?" The king asked."I'm sure it means exactly what you're thinking, Father. She is the woman I love, and we are in a relationship." Adro explained."Oh, dear God," the Queen mumbled, clutching her chest.Adro wasn't surprised by his parents' reactions. Although it seemed sudden, he had planned this since he learned that he would return to his original world. Before discussing the witch wreaking havoc in his kingdom, he would inform his

Grace's brow furrowed. "Her… room? Do you mean Princess Jocelyn is in this palace?""That's correct, ma’am. Since Prince Adro suddenly disappeared on their wedding day, the princess has been waiting for him in this palace. She said his highness would return for her." She explained, then smiled in relief before continuing, "And she was right; Prince Adro has indeed returned. Finally, Princess Jocelyn doesn't have to wait any longer."A piercing in her heart made Grace almost grimace. As she suspected, Jocelyn had been waiting for Adro all this time. And now Adro had returned to his world, at a time when his engagement to her hadn't reached its limits for marriage."Ma’am, does your eye adornment feel irritating?"Anez's question startled Grace out of her reverie. Then she wiped the corners of her watery eyes with a single move. "My… My eyes are a bit sensitive, but I'm fine.""If the irritation persists, I can remove it and

"I… I can’t believe…" Jocelyn turned to the king and queen, seeking validation for Adro's statement, but both of them remained silent. "How could this happen? Didn't you… love me?" Jocelyn stared at Adro, covering her mouth. "Princess, please calm down first. We were just about to discuss this," the queen stood up and approaching the trembling girl. "I'm sorry, Jocelyn. I truly apologize. I realize that I have never loved you as a woman all this time. But with the girl I've chosen, I love her as a woman. I want her to be my partner for the rest of my life." Adro explained slowly. "Stop it, Adro!" The queen snapped. Then she embraced Jocelyn's shoulders. "We'll talk about this. Be calm and don't worry—" "No, mother." Adro interrupted. "I don't want to hurt Jocelyn even more by giving her false hope. There's nothing more to discuss because my decision is final, no matter what you say or whatever the consequences are. I will marry Grace." Staring at her son in disbelief, the queen

"I-I’m..."Jocelyn's brow furrowed while examining the girl in front of her from head to toe. From her attire, she seemed like an ordinary noble, just like the girls who had come to the palace to meet Damian."Oh, did I make you uncomfortable? Would you like to sit in the garden and enjoy a cup of tea?" Jocelyn asked."I… I'm not sure..." Grace mumbled, trying to control her erratic heartbeat."I can see you're quite interested in this garden. Usually, only the royal family can enter, but this garden belongs to my fiancé, so I can accompany you inside if you'd like," Jocelyn said, then extended her hand. "I know it's quite late, but our tea is light. I’m sure you will like it."

"What do you mean, Grace?"Grace bit her lower lip and cast her gaze downward. "You can marry Princess Jocelyn if you must or if you desire to.""Grace!" Adro cupped both of her cheeks and directed her to look at him. He saw tears slowly streaming down her cheeks. "Why would you say that? What happened?""I just... thought it was the best, for the greater good." Grace put her gaze down again."No. Someone must have said something to you. Tell me, who is bothering you?""No one is bothering me, Adro." Grace lifted her face to look at his eyes and continued, "On the contrary, I'm the one bothering them.""You're bothering them?" Adro reiterated. "Grace, you're the most helpful person here. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to come back.""But because of me, you've broken off your engagement!" Grace replied, silencing Adro.Then she continued, "Princess Jocelyn... I just met her. She's a good girl, perfect, and has

Grace could feel her knees trembling.She had a monster standing before her—three meters tall with wings twice the length of its body. It had glowing red eyes and a large bill filled with saw-sharp teeth. Yet she didn't know she could be this brave. She was even half-conscious when she grabbed the sword lying on the ground and somehow swung it at the monster's back."Come here!" Grace exclaimed, adopting the stance Adro had taught her.CAWK!With rage, the monster lunged at Grace. She ran aside with the heavy sword in both hands. Fortunately, as the monster was injured, its movements weren't as fast as before, allowing Grace to stand beside it and swing the sword at its wings.CAWK!"Yeah! Feel that!"Grace's cheers made the monster even angrier, attempting to attack her again. When the monster flapped its wings to attack her from a higher position, Grace swung her sword and thrust it into the monster’s belly.Blue
