While Toby and Rocco were in the middle of the conversation, a graceful figure barged in unexpectedly.
"Toby, when are you summoning Zedbar back?"
Rocco shuddered involuntarily at the familiar voice, his hands becoming restless. What is this dreadful woman doing here suddenly?
Under his nervous gaze, the princess sauntered into the room.
Toby, on the other hand, found her arrival somewhat baffling. Why should I summon that useless waste back? To irritate me?! Besides, he and his father are the perfect partners currently coercing the Sacred Mount. That's even more reason for me not to summon him back!
With a hint of sarcasm, Toby asked, "Are you missing Mr. Zedbar, Iris?"
Initially intending to warn her—after all, the two had broken up, and she was the one who had dumped Zedbar—Toby was surprised when Iris admitted it. "Yes, I miss him! Enough talk. Summon him back!"
Ever since learning Zedbar's true identity, Iris had constantly yearned to bring him back to Everton, the center of power. Her intentions were simple: only by returning to the center of power could she vie for the throne. Moreover, she didn't just want to be queen; she craved a tumultuous and thrilling reign, an experience she had yet to taste.
Toby initially valued Iris because of her favor with their father, and their alliance was a means to gain more resources. With his grandfather's return to Everton, Toby was at the height of his influence.
After being scolded by Iris, he felt indignant and refused outright. "Zedbar is currently on an important mission, Iris. If you miss him, go find him yourself at the borders!"
