The King's Night Out (England, A.D. 1220)
Huh?
I wonder why they closed the gate
When I told the gatekeeper earlier to keep it open
It's the return of the king!
The king is back!
Lower the drawbridge!
Let me in already!
- Now! - Welcome back
- @#%&*...How? - You're late
You just woke up, right?
Where have you been until now?
- Downtown. Traveling incognito - Incognito?
It's my duty to know how commoners spend their times...you know?
- So you mean you went out to party and get coddled by your people
Not...really
- Trying to catch a glimpse of the toiling people - They don't work at this hour, right?
I just wanted to see them drinking away the pain of daily labor
Please don't tell me that your Highness went to uncivilized places like bars
I went there just to observe how these commoners release their stresses
You see, if you get rid of these bars, the citizens will get mad
- Are you getting rid of them? - No, never
Just as I thought
So I went out to investigate
whether to get rid of bars or not you understand?
- I see - Are you still upset?
- Alone? - Yes
- Without telling me? - Well...
- Wearing that royal cloak? - Well...
- I just wanted to look my best for the occasion - What "occasion"?
- Nothing special - I bet it was special
- Just trying to connect with my people - With a swarm of cute damsels
- Not really - They were all over you right?
Going like, "I love Mr. King!"
I was undercover so I never told anyone. They must have thought I was doing cosplay
You're being ridiculous
- You outfit is just too flamboyant - No
- They recognize your face, too - Not really
They'd just think that I dressed up for a costume party night
- Oh, so you went to those kinds of bars - No, I'm just saying...
You abandoned your dear queen and went to all sorts of fun places
No, wait, wait.
I bought a gift just for you
A gift?
Do you think your husband would return, empty-handed after a night out?
- I see - Yea, right!
What is the gift?
This broach!
I can't see it clearly. Could you hold it up more?
Isn't this broach spectacular? Shining under the moonlight
- It shines just like you - I can't see it clearly from here so
- I should go inside and show it to you - No, just throw it
Throw? That's impossible
- I'm not young anymore. That's impossible - I see
- Wait, wait. I just have weak shoulders - So you can't throw it
- You can stay there all night then - Alright, I'll throw it
- Hope this reaches to your heart - Just throw it
- Now - Okay, okay
Here we go
