Chapter 43 I could not understand why the Empress had summoned me to the Imperial Palace that day. However, judging by Ray's reaction, I could only guess that it was probably not for anything good. And because I thought the reason might be related to the struggle for the throne, there was nothing I could do. All I had was my status as a noble. ‘I need power.’ I needed to have something in my hands so that when my friend was in trouble, I could at least use that something to help…-

Chapter 42 It was the Empress’s question about whether there was someone Raymund was interested in. Deep down, Seiana had hoped that he might be conscious of her as a woman, but Raymund was firm. “Absolutely no one.” It was good that ‘……Ro’ was not included either, but that also meant he did not see her as a woman, so Raymund felt disappointed. Silence settled between the two of them, but Raymund’s mind was anything but quiet. The Empress’s…

Chapter 41 At the end of his gaze, he saw a pit. It was a small pit filled with a thick-looking black liquid. It was not as if it were boiling inside a pot, yet bubbles were rising from it. Whenever those bubbles grew too large and burst, something like spores floated away on the wind and spread through the air. “That is the curse. If you leave it alone, the seeds of the curse will spread all over the place like that.” That was why it was the first thing they had to get rid of.…

Chapter 40 “Did you hear? We’re supposed to go see Grandpa Violet.” Raymund had been thinking about how to make Seiana less tired when they traveled, but when Aries suddenly barged in and started talking only about what she wanted to say, he narrowed his eyes. Normally, he would have pretended not to hear her and ignored her, but the name Aries mentioned was one he could not ignore. “Why?” “You didn’t hear? He found something strange this time, but he said it would be…

Chapter 39 “Oh my, be careful.” “I-I’m terribly sorry…” “Drink slowly. You can greet me later.” Was she… always this kind? This was the first time I had met her both as the Empress and as my friend’s mother, so I couldn’t understand. Once the water washed down the food that had gone down the wrong way and my throat felt better, I finally greeted her properly. “I’m terribly sorry.” “…Don’t be so nervous around me.” Hearing Her Majesty the…

Chapter 38 “……Braid my hair into one braid. And leave the hairpin as it is.” Ena neatly braided my hair as I asked. She also used the hairpin Ray had given me to hold back the bangs that could not be braided and kept falling down. There were still more things to choose from. There were accessories such as necklaces and bracelets, but since my dress was simple, there was no need to choose anything flashy. “I’ll go with a choker.” I chose a choker with a sapphire attached…

Chapter 37 I suppose it was true that Ray liked Lady Estarote, right?” “Yes. Whenever he goes out to see Lady Estarote, he pays a lot of attention to what he wears.” The fact that he worried about his clothes starting the day before was undeniable proof. If they were simply comfortable with each other, he would have had no reason to care and could have gone dressed casually. The woman became anxious at the thought that someone as precious as Seiana was also on Ray's mind. If you…

Chapter 36 She was so jealous that she could almost taste bitterness in her mouth. If Raymund forgot about his dignity and begged, Seiana might make a troubled face and allow him some things. Even if going into the dressing room together was too much, taking a nap together should be allowed… But Raymund's greed would not even allow that. If someone did something with Seiana, then he had to do it too. ‘And there are things other people can't do with her, but I can.’ Raymund…

Chapter 35 The time came for them to part ways. Why did meetings always seem so short? Thinking about parting from Seiana, Raymond felt an urge to take her with him all the way to the Imperial Palace. However, ‘If I did that, the Count and his family certainly wouldn’t just sit still.’ Then he would inevitably have to clash with her family, and Seiana would get angry with him. So Raymond suppressed the desire rising inside him. “Urgh……. Our daughter has…

Chapter 34 “I really like fairies too! So when Seiana said that she believed in fairies that day, I got so excited that I ended up pressing her with questions!” “Ah…….” Was that what happened? Hearing this, I could understand why the Duchess had reacted so strongly that day. The Duchess continued explaining. The picture book was a collection of fairy paintings drawn by an artist long ago, and the various odds and ends were things she had actually made based on objects that…
