"Lit."

"Over here."



　Early morning. The sun is just about to rise when Kilik, the first princess of the kingdom of Athrelita, summons her squire on a whim.

　Of course, she had no plans to do so. Kilik, who would normally still be asleep for a few hours, happened to wake up. But before he knew it, the butler was standing by the princess, ready to go.



"You're up early this morning. My Lady."

"Yes. It's very good of you to call me at this hour and still come."

I am your daughter's butler, sir.

That's a good attitude. I'm going for a long ride.

The horses are already prepared for you, sir.

"Oh, no. I was thinking of going with Catherine today.

Of course I have everything ready.



　Lilit had already prepared five horses outside. One of them was Katherine, the horse named by Kilik. She immediately gave a signal to the other horses and helped Kilik to change his clothes.



"Well... But I might have changed my mind.

"Would you like to have dinner?"

"Well, ...... no, thank you. I'm ready to hunt."

Fishing might be nice this time of day.

No. Hunting.

Yes, sir. Then let's change horses and equipment.

"Yes, ...... for hunting, ...... for horses."

How do you like the Bellow?

If you're in good shape, that's fine.

Yes, sir.



　Lilit always brings a satisfactory result by guiding Princess Kilik, who is always selfish.

　The two of them prepare themselves with cool faces, but the rest of the retinue is frantic.



　Still, it is Lyto who has the most to do. The fact that Lyto is able to enjoy a cool conversation with Kilik here is due to his extraordinary insight and careful preparation. The servants, who knew this, had nothing to blame him for.



　Only the two of them were enjoying a leisurely and elegant morning, as if time had passed in a different way.
