I love time travel the most!

He is a knight with purple hair.

Overall, she was very elegant and seemed very well-mannered.

The cat-eared man curled his lip and said, "Julius, you're being too serious, meow. Aren't those awful old men not around right now?"

"That's not OK."

The knight named Julius vehemently condemned him.

And he was the knight who had a verbal altercation with Subaru Natsuki at the entrance of the Royal City's duty room yesterday.

"You two still have such a good relationship."

Reinhard walked over and naturally joined the conversation.

"It would be better if he wasn't so eccentric."

Julius rubbed his aching head, then looked behind Reinhard with slight surprise.

"Huh, you..."

"meet again."

Kobayashi casually waved his hand as a greeting.

Reinhard smiled and said, "By the way, you already met Julius yesterday, didn't you? I'm sorry for the late introduction. This is Kobayashi, the newly promoted court mage, and also my close friend."

"Best friend?"

Julius raised an eyebrow.

Being regarded as a close friend by a knight among knights and a descendant of a sword saint family, Kobayashi has already piqued their interest.

"Hello, I'm Xiaolin."

"Julius".

The two introduced themselves.

Kobayashi continued, "I'm sorry, what happened yesterday caused you a lot of trouble."

“It’s alright. If you had said earlier that you were Reinhard’s friend, I would have given you some convenience.”

"No need. If we're friends, we should be even more careful. It wouldn't be good if someone caught us doing something wrong."

"……you're right."

Whether or not you can become friends is a very peculiar feeling; you can tell whether you are compatible from the moment you meet them.

Julius, who initially thought that Kobayashi and Subaru would be somewhat prejudiced against him because they were traveling together, now seems to be completely different.

"Ah, it's you, little brother!"

Phyllis suddenly shouted, startling many people. The cat-eared man, realizing he'd done something wrong, cutely stuck out his tongue.

Reinhard paused for a moment, then asked, "Philis, do you know Kobayashi too?"

“It’s meow. I saw you before at the Earl’s mansion on the border of Mezas, but I was in a hurry to leave, so I didn’t say hello.”

Phyllis flicked her tail.

What a coincidence! It just goes to show how wonderful fate can be.

In short, the four of them met each other by various coincidences, and with the cat-eared man Phyllis's efforts to make things work, the atmosphere of the conversation was quite pleasant.

Then, for some reason, they started talking about Subaru Natsuki, since Subaru Natsuki had a close relationship with the people present.

"Speaking of that boy, I always felt he was very reckless."

"It should be said that he didn't know the gravity of the situation."

"I think he's funny, meow."

"Subaru is indeed a peculiar person."

The four people had differing opinions about him.

"anyway……"

Kobayashi suddenly asked a strange question: "Do you think he'll show up here later?"

"No."

Julius was the first to answer.

"What's the reason?"

“It’s simple. This is the royal palace hall, and no one except authorized personnel is allowed here. I remember that boy was Lady Emilia’s servant, right? Then he has even less right to be here.”

"Well, that makes sense."

Kobayashi nodded.

However, he was not satisfied and turned to ask the other two.

"What do you think?"

“I share the same view as Julius.”

Reinhardt didn't think Subaru Natsuki would be here.

"I have a different opinion, meow." The cat-eared man, Phyllis, tapped his lips with his finger and said after thinking for a moment, "I have a feeling that this boy is going to do something earth-shattering, and considering that you specifically mentioned it, I think it's very possible, meow!"

"So, you're not relying on reasoning, but choosing to believe me?"

"That's it, meow!"

Is it that they have a very keen intuition, or that they're always stirring up trouble?

But he was right.

"he came."

Just then, as Kobayashi reminded them, the doors to the palace hall behind them opened.

Besides an arrogant young girl with her head held high and a strangely dressed man, there was also a triangular-eyed boy dressed as a butler.

He was the very person they had just been discussing.

"--Pleiades?"

Emilia blurted out in surprise.

LNG vs. T1, I don't want to say the gap is too big, but that's the reality. However, there's no time to grieve for the defeat of the young star; the next to arrive is the Prime Minister!

Chapter 373 Fifth Candidate, Felt, reporting for duty!

How exactly did he get into the city?

Aside from the surprised silver-haired half-elf girl, Reinhard and the others were also slightly taken aback. But soon, they all mentally labeled Natsuki Subaru.

—A reckless fellow.

"Amelia, I..."

Natsuki Subaru, dressed in a butler's uniform and looking out of place in the palace hall, was also nervously clutching his trouser legs with his hands on either side, seemingly aware that he shouldn't be there.

It's a pity it's too late.

"What's the matter with the servant who's been staring at me? You half-baked coward."

The silence wasn't broken by Emilia or Subaru, but by a haughty girl who stepped up from behind and stood in front of Subaru like a boss.

Priscilla's words were even a bit excessive, after all, the label of "half-baked" was so targeted, and the intention behind it was very obvious to attach it to the silver-haired half-elf girl.

At this moment, the impulsive Natsuki Subaru became concerned about the feelings of his beloved, and even though he already knew that Priscilla was a royal candidate and of equal noble status to Emilia, he still retaliated without mercy.

"Don't say such offensive things!"

"What? I'm repaying your life-saving grace. You should be grateful to the point of tears."

"You've been denying it all along, haven't you? And it wasn't me who saved you, it was Kobayashi! This was just a simple prank!"

Subaru Natsuki pushed Priscilla away, who was making sarcastic remarks, and distanced himself from her.

Seeing this rejection, the arrogant girl, her heels firmly planted on the ground, narrowed her slender eyes unhappily.

She was angry.

A person who disregards everyone and believes the whole world should revolve around her is capable of doing anything absurd.

However, before the ominous atmosphere could spread...

"Cough-cough-"

A cough came from ahead. It wasn't loud, but it was enough to break the silence and draw the attention of the two people involved.

"Xiao Lin?"

"you……"

Subaru and Priscilla reacted differently.

The impulsive young man who came to the rescue was deeply moved, but the arrogant girl, on the verge of a fit of rage, was extremely annoyed. She knew for certain that he would stop her.

"Hmph, boring."

The girl flung the fan away.

At the same time, Roswaal, who was standing next to Emilia, also revealed an ambiguous smile and deliberately lingered on his words, saying, "This is really rude of me~~~ I never expected that my lost servant would be found by Lady Priscilla. Thank you for taking care of me."

"You want to steal what I found?"

"Clothes. There should be a family crest sewn into his uniform."

"--Um?"

Priscilla's expression disappeared.

Looking at Natsuki Subaru with a confirming gaze, the butler, urged by the gaze, quickly rolled up the hem of his clothes and indeed saw an eagle-like embroidery inside.

It is the crest of the Mezas family.

In other words, Subaru Natsuki is owned by someone.

If Kobayashi stopped her from going crazy, then Roswaal killed the game, preventing the arrogant girl from causing any more trouble.
