085. Ruppel Olfolse -3 (Part Two)

**

The 'Second Imperial Prince', Ruppel Olfolse, flinched nastily and raised his gaze up at the giant tree at least eight metres tall.

It didn't look like any old regular tree, judging from the strange feeling it gave off. And he found it truly displeasing to behold, too.

Just as he began thinking that to himself, two Paladins suddenly blocked his path. One was a girl yet to mature into a woman, while the other was an older man with a hardened face.

Ruppel stared at the two as the expression of 'Oops!' floated up on his face.

'Did I act too conspicuously?'

He scanned his surroundings. Servants and maids were running around in fear and panic, or were hiding themselves away in their private chambers. A young servant boy like him waltzing around without a care in the world would obviously stand out like a sore thumb.

'In that case, there was no point in dressing up like a servant in the first place, was there?'
