Chiaki's POV
"Sensei, who is that person?" Sakai-san asked, her voice low but clear, as if she were afraid that speaking too loudly might somehow change what she was seeing.
"I–It's Princess Myrcella's lover," I answered. The words left my mouth almost automatically. Or rather, that was what I believed him to be. I had no proof as well as no solid reason. It was just a feeling that settled in my chest the moment I saw the way they stood near each other.
I shifted my gaze toward Princess Myrcella, watching her reaction closely. She noticed, met my eyes, and gave a small nod, confirming that he was really her lover.
Sakai-san narrowed her eyes slightly, her brows knitting together. "I feel like I've seen that person before…" she said after a pause. "I don't know why, but… it's bothering me. It was the same kind of feeling when I met Miss Shredica, but he doesn't look anything like the person I thought he was. And yet, for a second, someone else came to mind."
