Princesses and bad guys. Thinking of it that way, Guy could just fill in Natalia and Van to fit those spots, and it still fit for Asch. When it came to flying through the ranks, that didn't really apply, mainly because Asch was already about as high as he could get without being the Commandant himself. And Guy got the feeling that Daath wasn't going to let someone so young take that position. Not that it mattered now, seeing how they were all stuck here and Asch wasn't even supposed to exist, back home.

"Yeah, he kind of is," he said as he brought his hand up to his chin and though it through. "He tended to show up to bother my friends and I whenever he felt like it, usually just to give us some information and then run off just as quickly. He was also trying to stop the same person as us, but he insisted on working alone. And he's known a princess since childhood." Guy didn't know if he wanted to start dropping names just yet, simply because there were a lot of open wounds between Asch and Natalia and he didn't need to broadcast that to someone who had randomly mistaken him for a zealous knight in her own world.

"So you also went traveling around with a group of friends?" he asked instead, wanting to see just where the similarities ended.
