At 4 pm inside the palace, exactly in Ren's room."Your highness..!!".Latifa yelled curiously waking Ren up.
"After your return, how many hours do you want to sleep without reporting to the king..!? it's 4pm already..! 4 O'clock in the afternoon..!!".Latifa Shouted.
"Ehhmm.in the end I can go home to Silford, I want to make up for my lack of time in Asylum.wake me up tomorrow at 6pm..".Reply Ren who is still sleeping on the bed.
"Your highness..!!! quickly wake..!!! as long as you sleep the butler takes leave..".Say Latifa with ketus.
"You mean Efil..?".ujar Ren.
"Yeah..! the butler who works like a slave of that company..! your majesty doesn't know..!?".Reply Latifa.
"What.the.ah..".Ren also remembered about the agreement he made with Efil during the duel in Asylum.
"Hehe.that's it.well when we're in Asylum I bet on him, if I'm not afraid and go straight home.then he should take a vacation to the hot spring..".Ren said with a smile on his face and lying on the bed inside the blanket.
"E~..!! so the rumor if you persuade him is true..!!".Latifa said in shock.
"Hahaha...big surprise isn't it..? you can praise me..".Reply Ren while laughing.
"Karen's a reason it feels a bit.ah! not even one rumor..".Reply Latifa.
"How many rumors are there about me..?".Ren muttered softly.
"Rumors about you beating the hero in Asylum".Latifa.
Hearing that Ren was silent for a moment and woke up from his sleeping position and sat on the bed."La~latifa..".Ren.
"Yes..!".Reply Latifa.
"I'm a slacker like this defeating a hero..? if you believe that rumor, make it more convincing..".Ren said with a mocking smile.
"I can't believe it..!! I don't believe in that..! I'm mad if you talk like that hmph..!".Reply Latifa while hitting Ren with a pillow.
Tok..button.tok..!
There was a knock on the door, and the man was Alfred's first prince."Sorry to interrupt your fun, dad called you.be prepared Ren..".Alfred.
Ren was getting ready to be helped by Latifa.After finishing Ren was walking with Alfred to the throne room.When in the hallway outside the room.
"You don't have to pick me up, too, brother..".Ren.
"Efil is on vacation, so I'm the one who replaced him to pick you up.Oh well the king of Zen also sent a letter of thanks to you, after Efil returned from his vacation me and father wanted to hear a story from you..".Alfred.
Ren took his eyes off."I don't want to hear about the war, I want to hear what you're doing there...Ren".Alfred said with a smile looking at Ren.
"My wits..?".Asked Ren astonished.
"Well, about that one too.I'll be waiting for him tomorrow when you're fitter.Like you have an interesting story..!".Reply Alfred.
"How was your life in Asylum..? did you get any friends?".Alfred asked.
"Uhmm.yes.I can, but calling it a friend is kinda..".Reply Ren while gripping his head.
Seeing his brother's behavior Alfred laughed loudly."Ahahaha.that's a great progress..! welcome back, Ren.you've done your best".Alfred said with a sincere smile on his face.

The night before Ren returned to Silford.Ren was sleeping on the bench outside the royal palace of Asylum alone saw the starry night sky.
Tomorrow I'm going back to silford...
it is exhausting if you are not used to it...
I managed to protect Asylum.None of them died and won the war.
For my sake of grasping the sword, for the sake of others I swung the sword..
I guess life like that.can't if it's not accompanied by someone...
Ren muttered in his heart while raising Rozen's sword up.About a long time later there was the sound of someone's footsteps approaching.
"It's so relaxing.Where is your servant?".said Iris who walked over to Ren.
"Ouh.how about you? you're not happy with the party?".Ask Iris.
"I'm not used to it from the past, I'd rather be alone..".Reply Ren.
"Am I interrupting..?".Said Iris while sitting on another chair close to Ren.
"No, you have business with me, right..? if I'll listen to him for a minute..".Ren.
"Yes...Then I will say it, first why did prince Ren think of the reinforcements...? you're not the one who said you don't care about us, I'm confused as to why I appreciate you so much".Iris.
"Ughh..ask the person yourself".Ren replies about his father Iris who appreciates Ren.
"But it was me who thought that way, I finally realized that I was a fool.you are actually a serious and good person.You will be seen by others as I did before...I honestly can't stand it. But...".Connect Iris.
Iris also recalled the events after the war ended in her father's office.Disana Iris along with the prime minister facing the king.
"Why..? your majesty..! why are you keeping it a secret..!? Ren Fon Silford is our hero..! Asylum must announce this and continue to be friends with Silford..".Shouted the Prime Minister.
"This cannot be known by our people or any other country...Especially don't let the empire know about this..!".Reply to the Zen King with a sharp look.
The prime minister and Efil were silent."He is not only a friend, he is also a generous person.Together I must also protect his existence..".The king of Zen.
After remembering that."That's all your wish isn't it..?".Iris told Ren on the park bench.
"Ah, I'm a useless prince, if you feel indebted to me treat me like that..".Ren replied with a proud face.
Iris got up from her seat and walked over to Ren."Therefore, tonight is my last chance.Not as a useless prince but as the hero who saved Asylum Ren Fon Silford is not it..?".Said Iris.
"What do you want to say..!?".Reply Ren a little annoyed and woke up from his sleep.
"I apologize for my rude behavior the other day, I apologize deeply.Thanks to you we can all continue to live...I'm Iris Haste Asylum to thank you for representing this country.I said thank you, for saving this country".Iris said sincerely while bowing her head.
"S~sama-sama...".Reply Ren slowly.
Ren also thrust the sword given by Rozen to Iris.Iris who saw it became confused.
"I wanted to bring it home, it's a sword belonging to a knight loyal to this land.It doesn't suit me, it's better this country keeps it...".Ren said as he gave the sword to Iris.
"Hemm.pwhen it's okay you keep it.but there is one condition..".Reply Iris.
"Condition..?".Ren said in surprise.
"Can I ask you to dance..?".Said Iris.
"The dance is a little bit..".Ren replied doubtfully.
"Yes.jekan dance ala both of us..you will accept it right?.His highness prince Ren Fon Silford..".Iris said while pulling out her sword.
That night Ren and Iris were dancing or could be said to be sparing...
Ting..! ting..!!
The sound of swords clashing against each other rang out that night in the palace garden."I envy you..!! why at that time it was not me who stood there.if I was as strong as you, surely no one would die.Hey..let me know how to be as strong as you..!!".Iris shouted as she clashed with Ren.
"Who cares..! once you've grasped a weapon or become strong, the thing that will wait for you is not the thing you want to be..!!".Reply Ren.
Ren also remembers his past.
It's better if I'm weak...
If I'm weak, I could die with them.If you're strong waiting for you there is just loneliness...
"I want to protect you..!! I don't want you to be a baj**dinger like me..!!".Shouted Ren to Iris.
"It is the sword that tries directly to protect someone..! I just did as he wanted..! being strong is not just about protecting someone...! how many times those I can't protect will get hurt..!!".Connect Ren.
"Although so..I want to be strong!! I won't let anyone die..! I want to be strong and protect them all..".Reply Iris.
Their battle practice was over, they both sheathed their swords back.
"It's an ideal, but it's hard to reach, but I won't deny your idealism".Reply Ren and give Rozen's sword to Iris.
Iris accepted it with a very sincere smile.
"Yes.want how well.I can't do anything for you.But, if you feel that you can count on me, use your power for the sake of others...you must be strong in order to protect others.Your efforts, I hope one day will be paid.Because.it will be good if it materializes".Ren encouraged Iris.
