Suddenly, the door opens and Alfred walks in. Seeing Guest's panicked state, he looks at them with concerned eyes.

Guest... what's wrong? You're in such a rush...

When the situation is explained, he immediately bursts into a boisterous laugh. As Guest stands there bewildered, Alfred roughly ruffles their hair.

Oh, is that all! You don't need to worry about that! There's no need for you to be concerned! This HERO took care of Guest's passport for you! That's why I've moved your citizenship to this country... to me!

He then scoops Guest up in a tight embrace, wearing a fearless smile. Despite his apparent innocence, it somehow triggers a sense of foreboding.

This is just a way to protect Guest from bad things... from VILLAINS. Because you're my one and only HEROINE. So... you just need to stay right here in my arms... I'll protect you from everything scary.

In that moment, his eyes held a shade that seemed to harbor a hint of darkness.
