Chapter 47 “Princess Kyseira, what brings you here?” Renheimer, who had entered right behind me, asked the question I had been about to ask myself. “I—!” Kyseira slammed her fist against the table. “Am I not allowed to come here?!” She looked exactly like someone getting angry after being caught red-handed. “Does Her Majesty the Empress know that you're here?” At Renheimer's question, Kyseira pouted. “I don't think she'd be pleased if she did.” I…-

Chapter 46 When Kayenne returned to her palace, she looked utterly exhausted. It wasn't just her expression. She had sunk so deeply into the sofa that even her usual elegance seemed to have disappeared. “I'm tired.” Staring out the window, Kayenne muttered to herself. “Shall I prepare things for your afternoon rest?” Novella, who had been watching her with concern, immediately stepped forward. “...” Kayenne didn't answer right away. For a long while, she simply…

Chapter 45 “So, why did you call me here?” At my question, the first person to recover from his surprise and speak was Ranut. “I summoned you because I wanted to hear, in detail, exactly how you ended up outside the palace.” He hesitated for a moment before continuing. “If it's difficult or painful to talk about, you don't have to say anything.” The corner of Kayenne's lips curved ever so slightly. She looked almost dumbfounded. And yet, she didn't argue with…

Chapter 44 I never ended up going down to the underground prison. Instead, Kashas brought her directly to my room. Is this really okay? She was wearing shackles on both her hands and feet, and several knights stood beside her, watching her closely. It didn't seem like there was any danger. "Y-Your Highness..." I looked at Mary, who was kneeling in front of me. Someone had clearly tried to wash her and hide the signs of torture so I wouldn't be shocked. But they hadn't managed to erase…

Chapter 43 There was nothing to gain from picking a fight with Yunid. Even for Kayenne, becoming an enemy of House Felcheon would be a heavy burden. If only that maid were still in my hands. If that had been the case, she could have simply cut ties with the situation by claiming it had been nothing more than a servant acting on her own. How had Ranut discovered Reginna's disappearance so quickly and managed to get his hands on the maid? But that question was ultimately meaningless. Ranut…

Chapter 42 “Bastard.” Left alone in the room, Lucior kicked the table again and spat out a curse. For some reason, he looked incredibly irritated. “Haa...” Taking a deep breath, he ran a hand through his hair and turned toward the door. If what Yunid had said was true, it would be better to leave. He had no desire to get caught up in something troublesome. That's... Just as he was about to head outside, he suddenly stopped. Under the sofa where Reginna had been…

Chapter 41 “Hey, villain! Face the judgment of justice!” After boldly declaring his intentions, the boy charged at the man once again. They know each other. The man could have subdued the child easily, yet he simply let himself be hit. And despite the boy running around as he pleased, no one tried to stop him. The two clearly knew each other—or, more precisely, the boy held a higher position than the man. “Go away! Re is scared of you! Go! Go!” “But, Young Master,…

Chapter 39 “Hey, wait...!” “You won't be able to lose enough money to ruin yourself here.” I opened my mouth in a panic, but the boy spoke first. “You didn't bring any servants with you, and you're dressed pretty simply. That means you either brought very little money or none at all, right? Were you planning to borrow money from the gambling hall?” He kept talking, but I couldn't answer. If I lost my concentration for even a second, I felt like I might trip and…

Chapter 40 “...” I looked back and forth between the cup of cocoa in my hand and Lucior before bursting into laughter. He hadn't brought me here to saddle me with loan shark debt. Of course he hadn't. He'd been desperately trying to stop me from gambling in the first place. There was no way he'd deliberately drag me into something illegal like black-market trading or usury. That was right. Unlike gambling, black-market trading was completely illegal. Which meant that even if…

Chapter 38 “I was neither acting under Her Majesty the Empress’s orders, nor did I ever plot against Her Highness the Princess.” Mary spoke calmly despite her trembling voice. “Princess Laziena must have gotten herself caught up in something dangerous. So please, find Her Highness first! Please!” Mary had no idea why that foolish Laziena had disappeared, but if they found the girl again, Mary’s innocence would quickly be proven. After all, the child she had painstakingly…
