Chapter 38 “…….” He let the stream of water pour over him and slammed his forehead against the wall of the bathing room. Just how ugly was he planning to become? After banging his head against the wall several times, he irritably looked down at the floor. His traces had been washed away by the water, but the heat in his body still had not gone down. He clenched his teeth and made a fist. ‘Fine. Let’s see who wins.’ If he drained all the energy from his body, surely it…-

Chapter 37 “Why have you still... not gone to sleep?” “No. I woke up while I was sleeping...” “Did you know that I had come?” “Not exactly, but I think that was probably why.” Lea added more words, even though her own answer seemed strange to her. “Sometimes that happens. Whether something good or bad is going to happen, I can just feel it.” “Is that also a spirit’s ability?” Lea shook her head. It was different from a spirit’s warning. It…

Chapter 36 “What on earth is going on...?” As Lea turned toward him to understand what was happening, he suddenly collapsed in front of her. “Your Highness?” She was startled when she saw him clutching his chest and gasping for breath in pain. “Your Highness.” Lea crouched down to his eye level and grabbed his arm so she could examine his condition more closely. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, sending her hair flying into the air. She understood the spirit’s…

Chapter 35 Luke was originally a royal guard knight directly under the Emperor. He was a genius who won the swordsmanship tournament held by the Emperor at the age of fifteen, and he was the youngest person in the history of the Empire to receive a knight's badge directly from the Emperor. That was why Luke had lived in the Imperial Palace since he was fifteen. Wasn't fifteen the age when boys liked to play and cause all kinds of trouble? The trouble Luke had caused was still talked…

Chapter 34 There was no strict hierarchy among the princes. It was coincidence that their numbers corresponded to age order. It was simply that the Emperor had assigned numbers in the order he acknowledged them as princes. Still, among the five, the first—Enoch—was somewhat special. After all, he was the first child the Emperor had acknowledged. And while the Second through Fourth Princes were only a year or two apart in age, Enoch was four years older than…

Chapter 33 Before Mariel left, Orbin met with her separately. He thought there must have been some misunderstanding in communication between his master and the princess. “I’m sorry you came all this way, but I think I should ask Her Highness again.” “No, there’s no need. It’s obvious.” “Obvious?” “The client is trying to prepare a surprise gift. Don’t ruin things by getting involved in the middle.” Orbin let out a hollow laugh. ‘A surprise gift? If…

Chapter 32 Karion’s secondary palace, the Viscount’s Residence, was located on the northern outskirts of the inner palace. Dense birch trees cast cool shadows even in the middle of the day. Even though its owner had been away for a long time, the garden was neat, without a single weed. That very neatness made it feel even more desolate. There was no sign of anyone in the secondary palace. Perhaps there were no permanent residents and people only came periodically to maintain…

Chapter 31 “The only clothes I have right now are traditional clothes from the kingdom. If I walk around District 3 wearing them, I’ll stand out. At the very least, I’ll need to buy one set of clothes from a tailor. But I think I need Your Highness’s permission to bring someone into the mansion. Wouldn’t rumors spread?” “What kind of rumors?” “Rumors like, ‘The Prince bought women’s clothes as soon as he arrived in the capital.’” Karion laughed, and Rea’s…

Chapter 30 The Imperial Capital, Aeterna. First Prince Enoch was enjoying a banquet in the Water Garden with aristocrats of his age who followed him. The Water Garden was an indoor garden built around a huge fountain.

Chapter 29 Karion was puzzled. Are all women from Zephyros like this? He had never seen her hesitate when she brought up the word “marriage.” Could marriage in Zephyros be very different from the kind of marriage people in the Empire knew? He had no intention of asking her. If she changed her mind, saying, “I didn't know that was what marriage meant,” it would be troublesome. He had made up his mind to make this marriage deal happen no matter what. She was the only one who…
