"You are Samuel Scheidt!"

　Sam was about to leave the palace, his shoulders slumped after the Demon King's invitation and the pervert's presence, when he looked up at the voice calling to him from the front.

"--His Highness Cedric."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The voice belonged to Cedric Isle-Sky, the first prince of the Kingdom of Sky.

　He is the younger brother of Sam's wife, Stella, who is the heir to the throne and has been nominated by his father, Clyde, to be the next king.

　Cedric is one year older than Sam and still a boy, but he is nearly 180 tall. He is slender yet toned, probably because he is a member of the Order of the Knights and wields a sword for the people.

　His hair is a soft honey blonde with a hint of silver, a characteristic of the royal family.

　His face is similar to Stella's, but he is a soft prince with drooping eyes.

"It's been a long time."

　Sam folded his knees and was about to bow, but Cedric restrained him.

"Please don't. You married my sister. Yes, I married your sister. You should call me brother.

　Cedric is the boy who is expected to be the next king.

　There are other princes, but Cedric is the rightful heir.

　He is both literate and skilled in both the military and civilian arts, and his fondness for magic and his beauty have made him the object of admiration not only of the children of the nobility, but of many women as well. He still has no official fiancée, and I have heard that offers of arranged marriages come to him daily.

　He is very popular among the people, and many boys aspire to become knights because they admire Cedric.

　Some of them are said to be plotting to make another prince the king, but Cedric was chosen as the next king because he was deemed suitable to be the next tomb-keeper.

　If the existence of the Demon King had been revealed to those who did not know about the existence of the Demon King Lepsy and thought that the prince who carried him up would be the next king, they would have been in serious trouble.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Few members of the royal family knew of the existence of the Demon King Lepssy. The information was shared only with those who were suitable for Clyde to be the tomb guard.

　In fact, since the other princes were still young and the nobles behind them seemed to be trying to manipulate them, it was out of the question to inform them of the existence of the Demon Lord.

　Although there is no Demon Lord Lepsy now, Cedric's position will never change.

　It was just before the wedding when Cedric and Sam officially met. I remember well that he was very friendly to me even though he was a prince.

"By the way, were you on business at the palace?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, the king called me.

"You must be busy as a court wizard. --Well, in that case, I shouldn't bother you too much.

Is something wrong?

　Cedric raised his eyebrows a little and opened his mouth as if he was troubled.

"No, you see, I had something I wanted to talk to you about.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Me?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes. If you have some free time after this, would you be willing to discuss it in my room?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, but I don't know if I can be of any help to you, Mr. Cedric."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If I could, I would consult with Cedric, but I don't think Sam can solve the problems faced by the royal family.

(If you want me to take someone down, I can...)

"That's not true!　That's exactly why I need your advice!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, yes, of course, if it's all right with me."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I appreciate it!　Because I have no one I can call a friend!　I have no one to talk to even if I wanted to!　Thank God!"

　Sam almost cried when Cedric said the sad thing out loud.

（It's quite amazing that the prince doesn't have any friends. (It's quite amazing that the prince has no friends...normally he would have school friends or playmates from his childhood...)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Children of nobles have childhood playmates, squires by their side, and cronies called "schoolmates.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This is especially true for princes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Of course, we may not be able to call such people friends, but it is quite strange that Cedric, who is a man of both literary and military prowess and is adored by many people, has no friends.

"Well, I heard that you and Günther are cousins and close.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Of course, Günther and I are close friends. But he is more like an older brother than a friend. Therefore, I am a little embarrassed to discuss this with you. I think you, above all, are the right person."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sam realized that he could help Cedric with his friendless problem.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　On second thought, Sam had no one he could call a friend either.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Most of them were older than him, and it would be impolite to call them friends. Günther is at the very last minute, but I'm not sure if I can treat him as a friend, because he seems to be the kind of guy who could get into trouble if I give him the chance.

"Oh, I'm a loner too."

"Bokuto?　I don't know about you, but I'd appreciate it if you could help me out. Let's go to my room right away. Oh, yeah, there's some good tea cakes. You can count on it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Cedric was light on his feet for a consultation, and Sam, realizing that he had no friends, followed at a leisurely pace.
