Albert headed out with his knights after they couldn't find Shin anywhere in the whole capital. He wanted to ask him for any advice on how to train for the dragon's fight, but sadly, he was nowhere to be found.
Albert had spent two hours looking for Shin all around the capital. He even went to Mary's house and asked for him, only to be told by Arachne that Shin had left, probably for Bron. The prince was itching for a fight; the news of the dragon finally gave him something to be excited about. Unlike how most people see him, he hates the royal court intrigues and would rather leave those stupid nobles for his sister Sara to deal with.
What the prince loves is listening to the roars of lightning, watching as monsters burn, and smiting them down with the purest white lightning from the sky. Even if he might say he wants to defeat the dragon to gain an achievement and win the throne, all he wanted in reality was to see how a dragon would survive his lightning.
