When Gray saw Gene II for the first time, Gene II practically threw himself at Gray's legs, crying uncontrollably.
"Holy Knight! Holy Knight! I feel so relieved to see you! I feel so relieved to see you!"
With tears and snot streaming down his face, he cried so hard he nearly couldn't catch his breath, making a pitiful sight.
A month-long escape followed by captivity had left Gene II in dirty finery, with disheveled hair and a face covered in grime, looking nothing like a mighty Duke.
His daughter Camilla, though not much better off than her father, still managed to maintain the demeanor of a noblewoman. Her hair appeared freshly combed, and despite her blue dress being somewhat tattered, it remained clean—a likely attempt to tidy up. Her face, although haggard, was still presentable.
Following behind her father, Camilla respectfully bowed to Gray.
