Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 683 Strange looks

It was late when we returned to the castle.

I knew that it was late already because of how dark it was outside, but I didn't expect it to be this late.

It was already close to midnight according to the clock in my room when I returned to the castle.

I had thought that the king would summon me, but it seemed like he was letting me get some rest first before that.

I was grateful since even though I had been sleeping before, it wasn't the good kind of sleep. My head was still aching, which I assumed came from me being knocked out by the baron that kidnapped me.

He had admitted that he hadn't been subtle and had knocked me out with his subordinates before carrying me out of the castle.

I just wished that they hadn't hit as hard so I wouldn't have the pounding headache that I currently had, but there was nothing that I could do about that. The doctor had already checked me and said that there were no signs of concussion, so the only thing that I could do to cure it was to sleep it off.

So I had to sleep and see if it got better in the morning.

But before I could go to sleep, there was a knock on the door.

I was surprised to see someone visiting me this late at night, but I found that it was a familiar face.

It was the fourth prince.

He had rushed back to the capital after taking care of the other princes, but I was surprised that he was meeting me instead of resting. After all, it certainly wouldn't have been easy to kill those brothers of his, so I thought that he would need some time to recover after that.

But here he was, standing outside my door.

I naturally couldn't keep him waiting outside, so I let him come in.

After he came in, there was a person that suddenly appeared and fell to her knees.

It was Shadow Five who had been the one that had been monitoring the princes from the forest. She had been the one that had reported that the group of princes had arrived at the cave to the fourth prince.

She was on her knees in front of me right now because…she was apologizing for abandoning her post.

I just helped her up and said, "It's not your fault, we both agreed to this. We thought that no one would come to mess with me during this time and that I would be safe in the castle, so I gave you permission to leave. It's not your fault."

Shadow Five shook her head as she said, "If I didn't insist on going, none of this would have happened."

I looked at the fourth prince for help when she refused to listen to me, but I found that he was looking at me with a strange look.

As for where he was looking…it seemed like he was looking at the inner parts of my lower half.

Seeing him look at me like this, I couldn't help feeling strange, but I gave a cough in the end that pulled the fourth prince back to his senses.

Coming over with a smile, he said, "I already told you that Brother Zwein wouldn't mind this, so there's no need to be this harsh on yourself."

Shadow Five still had her head down when she heard this, as if she was still reflecting on what had happened.

The fourth prince just spoke in a teasing voice when he saw this, "It seems like Brother Zwein's charisma is something that I can't compare to. In just a little while, it seems that your words are already carrying the same weight as mine to my subordinates."

Shadow Five suddenly looked up and said, "It isn't like that. Your highness will always be the number one in my heart."

The fourth prince and I couldn't help being taken aback when Shadow Five suddenly said this.

With the serious look that was on her face as she said this, it seemed like she had been very sincere about this.

It was to the point where it was a bit embarrassing. f reeweb novel.com

Neither the fourth prince nor I knew what to say in this awkward situation.

So in the end, we made an excuse to leave things as they were and the fourth prince left with Shadow Five.

But as he was leaving, I could see that he was giving me the same strange look as before.

He wasn't looking at my face, he was still looking at that place in between my legs as if he was trying to see something.

I just didn't know how to feel about that…

So I just ignored it for now and went to sleep.

Only when the morning came…

…

As expected, I was summoned by the king the next morning. freew(e)bnovel.com

The guards had all returned after heading out with the fourth prince, so there were no security issues with the castle anymore. I was able to move freely through the castle again, so I went to see the king as I was summoned.

But there were strange looks that were cast in my direction as I moved through the castle.

It was only minor at first since there were only a few people outside my room, but as I moved to the part of the castle that had more and more people, I could see that there were more people that were looking in my direction.

The strangest part of the way that they looked at me was that they were all looking at my lower half.

They weren't looking at me directly, they were just looking at that place in between my legs.

It was almost as if they were looking at something specific.

I could guess what they were looking at, but then I heard something that confirmed it.

"I heard that it's really, really big…It's almost like a tree trunk."
