Alex slowly rose from his bed as he looked at the window of his room.
The first rays of sunlight lit his surroundings with a pale glow, announcing the start of a brand new day.
On the small basket right beside Alex's bed, Dim Dim slept peacefully, showing no signs of waking soon.
It was still pretty early, so Alex didn't wake the little bun. He walked to the table with the jug of water and a small bowl, then proceeded to wash his face.
Today was the day of his duel against Prince Garen.
Even now, he couldn't help but sigh internally, not knowing what to feel about the Prince's rather intense infatuation toward Vaan.

For men unaware of his true gender, falling for him was natural, given his lively, mischievous, and charismatic character.
For Alex, even if Vaan was really a girl, he would at most think of her as a mischievous little sister who liked to play pranks on others.
