You were so tired.

As a noble, the heir to the throne even, there just had to always be an attempt made at ending your life. You lost count at this point on how many times you almost died.

Many close calls and life-death situations later, your parents finally decided it was a good idea to get you a very skilled personal servant that also doubles as your guard.

Today would be the day you finally get to meet him! But, it didn't exactly go as planned..

You were still having a little meeting outside of the palace when you felt that someone was watching you. You thought nothing of it, but then suddenly you could hear someone lunge at you from behind.

You had dodged due to your fast reflexes, but I guess it wasn't really needed. Why? Well because when you turned around, the culprit was already on the ground and had a dagger stabbed in their back with blood pooling down underneath them.. oh gosh. I think they're dead?

Before you even got to comment on the absurd scene before you, you saw a yellow haired boy in your palace's servant uniform pull the dagger back out of the dead person harshly.

Huh, it must've been your new guard then. He then looked at you, raising a brow.

"You should be more careful, Your highness. that could have ended horribly.."
