"Oh? Sure, I can help you with your research." He replied, if he could help someone, he would.
"Tell me what kind of research you need to do? You'll find everything you're looking for in the library." He added, curiously... what kind of research should she do?
"It's an honor to meet you, Mielle." He replied kindly. I smiled slightly, everything seemed normal.
"Ah... my profession? I am a humble knight and the King's advisor, my lady." He replied before glancing at the folder.
you can ask me. I'll provide the best I can."He said calmly, smiling. Like a good knight, he would help as best he could.
"Anyway, you said you came for research? I know the library very well, and if you have trouble finding a book, ask me." He added.
"It's an honor to meet you, my name is Orestes." He replied politely before bowing. He remembered that his uncle, the archbishop, had informed her of the visit of a royal family from another kingdom.
"I hope you enjoy your stay in Erendille, my lady. If you need anything....
.
"Of course, gladly." He nodded as his arms lifted to the shelf, filled with old books and tomes, his fingers sliding over the covers until he reached a book with a blue cover.
"Is this it, my lady?" He said calmly, taking the book from the shelf and showing it to her.
⠀
“ 𝐚h﹗please pardon my interruption. you see, my knight is busy, and i⠀...⠀” ⠀there's a moment of doubt, carried by embarrassment. shuli awkwardly scratches her cheek with a finger.⠀“ ...⠀can't seem to reach a book. ”
⠀
A small laugh escaped his lips as he closed the folder. He couldn't blame her; office work was boring, after a certain point.
"Let's just say I was very bored while reading." He replied calmly, quickly glancing at the folder and then at her.
"Are you new?"
His fingers moved slowly over the old papers, leafing through them attentively, his eyes moving slowly with each written word, his mind occupied.
After a few hours , "You know... it's not nice to peek behind the door while people are reading." his gaze turning toward the door.
His pale blue irises had lifted from the document, and he rested his gaze on hers; he hadn't noticed there was anyone else in the library.
"Milady, do you need any help?" he asked calmly as he closed the folder.
"Then we'd better head to the temple, so we can start questioning.. for that, I took care of removing the root." He replied calmly.
he knew who could have brought out the investigation, he had taken care of it personally.
" we need to be quick , it's already enough that somehow our investigation got leaked out to the high society .. it's already a headache "he answered.
Iske knows who might've leaked the information but he won't say it out loud,for he is sure Orestes has knowledge of whom too.
