<p>Towards the end of episode 4 of the anime, Ikta says </p>

<blockquote>
  <p>“Yo, Yatori, there’s something important I need to tell you. You might
  already know it, though… Right now, you’re really red, you know?”</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Which makes sense in context for Yatorie: red hair, red blood, adrenaline, etc.</p>

<p>What doesn't make sense is when he said it to the princess a few minutes later:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>“And by the way, I won’t mention it anywhere else, but I’ll tell you privately in secret…. Princess, right now, you’re really red.” </p>
</blockquote>

<p>What does it mean when Ikta said that to the princess?  Was he trying to flirt?  Was he trying to look cool?</p>

<p>Quotes came from <a href="https://www.baka-tsuki.org/project/index.php?title=Tenkyou_no_Alderamin:Volume_1_Chapter_4" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a>, which seems to be a slightly different story than the anime.</p>

Considering the situation, I'd assume a joke to comfort the princess fell flat?

Yeah that's what happened, though I don't understand how it's a compliment or a flirt.  I suspect it has to do with the history or context of the story or backstory.

Which makes sense in context for Yatorie: red hair, red blood, adrenaline, etc.

What doesn't make sense is when he said it to the princess a few minutes later:

> “And by the way, I won’t mention it anywhere else, but I’ll tell you privately in secret…. Princess, right now, you’re really red.”
