After piling a heap of shopping bags onto Charte's chest and walking outside, he followed her and asked with genuine curiosity. "Why do I have to carry these?" "Then should I carry them?" "Aren't there any attendants?" "I told you. This is a self-reliant place where people take care of their own business. Unless you're very rich, people like me do everything themselves. At least this much." Then Charte suddenly caressed her cheek with a pitying face and said. "You've had it tough. From…-

"Charte? Is that really you?" "What nonsense. How common do you think a handsome face like mine is?" Though she couldn't touch him, it was the first time they could converse since he had appeared in her dreams. Tears burst forth suddenly. When she suddenly started crying, Charte reached out his hand, but he seemed to be blocked by some invisible curtain and couldn't cross over. "I can't even wipe away your tears." Seeing that Charte's face looked more upset than her crying one, she raised…

"If your ex-girlfriend came back and asked to get back together, would you meet her?" "Not now, I wouldn't meet her." "Really? You seem to have moved on quite a bit. I'm jealous." "Would you meet him if he contacted you, Yun-ah?" She downed a shot of clear soju with a bitter expression, feeling miserable that she couldn't possibly receive any contact. Strangely, drinking with Ji-hoon made the alcohol taste sweet. "Ah~! That's good. He won't contact me." "But what if he did?" "Then…

"Was I that strange?" "You asked so many questions." Then, as if a memory had come back, Yun-seo shook her head vigorously. "At one point, when you asked what democracy was, I thought you were a time traveler from the past. You even forgot how to use a cell phone—isn't that something your body remembers? Or is it something you do with your head?" Yun-seo rolled her eyes in confusion. "But it's all fine now that you've woken up. If you have any questions, just ask anytime. And sis, if you…

Without speaking, they could feel everything, and the silent moments were more precious for engraving each other's traces in their hearts. When they could no longer delay getting up, they rose. Charte gave her gift-like kisses on her forehead, eyes, nose, cheeks, and finally lips. Neither she who was leaving the room, nor Charte who remained inside, said goodbye. Returning to the empress's palace, she made simple preparations and moved to the banquet hall. Gardio and the assistant mage were…

Ivester warmly embraced her as tears poured out without control. She endlessly thanked her precious friend she had met in the empire. After Ivester left, she gathered Judith and the maids who had attended to her, as well as the close maids who had been in charge of her appearance. She handed the maids pouches filled with gold coins. They all looked at her with surprised and bewildered faces. "This is a reward for all your hard work." The maids bowed their heads and expressed their…

Whyman thought this contract was real. At the time of the marriage, the empress was not Leila but Jo Yun-ah. If so, it was entirely possible. Leila wouldn't have done such a big thing, but it was possible for Jo Yun-ah who knew nothing about the empire. "Let me meet Elisha just once. That child won't plan anything for the future. Please, I'm begging you. Whether you like it or not, we've been rubbing shoulders for over 40 years. Nathan." Whyman let out a deep sigh without realizing…

When the Tower Master arrived with the mages, the outcome was easily decided. The dream of rebellion vanished vainly within a few hours, and Neiyard and the high nobles were imprisoned in the underground dungeon. Soon their interrogation began. Charte appeared before Neiyard. "H-how." Neiyard stammered in confusion and eventually couldn't continue speaking. And then Yasrin appeared before them with her wrists bound. Neiyard shot a sharp glance at Yasrin. "If only the princess hadn't…

Everyone seemed to think this was an irreverent suggestion they had never imagined, as they didn't hide their surprised expressions. "Isn't this better than just waiting?" "I think the empress's method is good. What do you all think? It seems the most valid reason for Neiyard to move." "But how dare we, Your Majesty......" "It's fine since I'm not really sick. Besides, if the people in this room say so, Neiyard won't think at all that we are using me, don't you think?" A tempted feeling…

After the meeting, she went to Charte's bedroom. He was still unconscious due to his severe wound and poisoned state. She was told that he was holding on without dying because the Tower Master and court mages had cast healing magic to prevent the poison from spreading. The only options were to find the person who made the poison and get the antidote, or have the Imperial Medical Center create an antidote themselves. It was during a separate meeting with Prime Minister Whyman, Duke Pahorder,…
