"I apologize if I seemed rude, but may I ask what is your relationship with Miss Ethel?" Prince Isaac asked Lyall and Merric.

Right now, he was thinking that all the men who were accompanying Ethel were rivals he must overcome in order to win her heart.

"I am her attendant," Merric replied. "Just one of her many loyal retainers."

"I am one of her suitors," Lyall stated. "But she's giving me the cold shoulder lately. Even so, I have no plans on giving up."

"And the rest?" Prince Isaac asked.

He already thought that all the young men who accompanied Ethel were her suitors. This way of thought was very normal, especially since all the men surrounding Ethel were quite good looking.

Of course, as a Prince, he had many ways to present himself as the better man in front of the ladies, so he wasn't worried about some competition.

"I'm her bed warmer," Nicole replied in a teasing tone. "Is what I'd like to say, but the most we've done was hold each other's hands."

"I am her... slave," Hecate answered. "My body, heart, and soul belong to her."

"I'm her Guardian," Conall stated. "Nice to meet you."

Prince Isaac nodded and gave Nicole a hard stare. Among the handsome men that accompanied Ethel, he was the only one who had the audacity to call himself as Ethel's bed

warmer.

In order to prevent further drama from happening, Ethan raised her hand to get the Waiter's attention.

"Excuse me, Sir, can I get a follow-up on our order?" Ethel asked.

"Y-Yes, My Lady," the Waiter replied. "Your order is almost done. We will be serving them in five minutes."

"Thank you." Ethan nodded. "Prince Isaac, my friends and I traveled far, so we plan to return to our Airship after eating a meal. As for your offer of giving us a tour, maybe tomorrow at around two in the afternoon. I'll be happy to meet at the South Gate at that time."

Hearing that there would be an opportunity to spend some time with Ethel, Prince Isaac decided to take a step back and end his meeting with the beautiful lady in a positive light.

"I'll be counting the hours until I meet you again, My Lady," Prince Isaac bowed respectfully. "I'll see you tomorrow at two in the afternoon."

"Thank you," Ethan replied.

Before leaving, Prince Isaac gave the other groups who planned to introduce themselves to Ethel a glance which screamed, "don't even think about it".

Understanding that the Prince didn't want any insect flying around the flower he had chosen, the other parties were forced to take a step back and return to their own tables.

After Prince Isaac finally left, the Waiter lined up several dishes on top of their table.

"Please, enjoy the food," the Waiter said. "If you have other requests, don't hesitate to tell me, My Lady."

"Thank you, kind Sir," Ethan replied.

He already expected that something like this would happen if he came to the restaurant for noble families.

He sighed in relief because the Prince's attention was targeted at him.

If Nicole, Hecate, and Lyall had come with their original appearances, the trouble would have been directed in their direction, which was something that Ethan wished to avoid if possible. This was why he made them drink the Polygender Potion, turning them into males.

Half an hour later, Ethan and the others left the Restaurant of Ostaria and walked toward the South Gate together.

"The food is quite delicious," Nicole commented. "Now I understand why that restaurant is very popular.'

"Indeed." Hecate, who had her fair share of fine dining, nodded in agreement. "Their chefs are commendable."

"They know how to cook meat properly." Lyall lightly patted her stomach. "No complaints here."

"I'm glad you enjoyed it," Ethan replied. "Let's hurry back to the Airship."

Sebastian and Ethan's Other Half had informed him that there were dozens of people following them from behind.

Although those people weren't closing the distance between them, they made sure to not lose Ethan's group from their sight.

Even after they had left the South Gate, these people still followed behind them.

But not wanting to waste any more time, Ethan sat beside Hecate on her broom and took off to the skies with her.

Nicole followed behind them, serving as a bodyguard, because some of the people that were stalking them were also wizards.

Lyall, Conall, and Merric, who didn't have flying brooms, started to run toward their Flying Ship at great speeds.

A handful of people, including Wizards, took off to the skies to follow Ethan's group until they arrived at the location where the Flying Ships were parked.

They watched as Ethel and her group entered one of the Flying Ships before they returned to the city to report to their Masters about Ethel's location.

Meanwhile, back in the Restaurant of Osteria...

A young man who seemed to be in his mid-twenties swirled the wine glass in his hand before glancing at the table where Prince Isaac was seated.

One of his subordinates informed him that a very enchanting lady, who had the beauty to bring down the downfall of a nation, had arrived in the City.

Thinking that his subordinate was just exaggerating, he wanted to ignore it at first.

However, since he had nothing better to do, he decided to take a look at the lady whom his subordinate had recommended.

The moment his gaze landed on her, he felt as if his cold heart started beating once more. He had lived for more than two hundred years, and he had seen many beautiful women.

But he had to admit that the young lady named Ethel was indeed a peerless beauty that could bring the downfall of a nation.

'Her blood is also very powerful,' the young man thought. 'Even from a distance, I can tell that she is a very powerful witch.'

A faint smile appeared on the young man's face because he hadn't felt something like this in a very long time.

The thought of sinking his fangs on her neck and the feeling of his hands caressing her body was more than enough to ignite the inner desires that he had been suppressing for a while.
