The guards were all looking around. Most of them never left the safety of the Royal Quarter, so no, none of them actually wanted to fight any adventurers. "You remember what happened when Princess Madoka fought Princess Aerona..." one of them whispered to another. 'Sou ka, so that is actually what happened huh?' Miki concluded, as several guards just casually let the adventurers pass, figuring the princess herself could likely handle them if she needed to. "What are you even talking about?" said the princess as she stood with the most indignant look on her face. "I just received a status report from the merchants, the farmers and the advisers and they said the Kingdom is functioning as it always does..." she said seemingly confused. Miki understood in this simple exchange exactly what was happening. This was a princess suffering from blind syndrome. Even as a player they hadn't considered the possibility of the people from this world lying to them, Miki upon hearing this sighed. "Yare yare daze. You can't actually be that naive. Of course, all of those people will tell you what you want to hear, they work for you... and it doesn't directly affect them," Miki said sounding quite annoyed rather suddenly. The princess stamped her foot and managed to look disturbed but as she looked around the room, the knights all avoided eye contact with her, as if searching for anything other than her face to look at. "But that... can't be true," she mumbled as she fell into her seat. "Well then... what do you know?" she asked them. If what Miki said was true, then no one within the castle was properly trustworthy for information.
