A few days after the Emperor collapsed, an agenda was raised at an urgently convened nobles' meeting. The agenda was submitted by the Emperor himself. Most nobles attending the meeting had anticipated this. 'The Emperor has been suffering from an incurable disease for 10 years already. Facing death, he needs to choose an heir to lead the Solium Empire....' The nobles were even aware that after the Emperor's collapse, he had summoned both princes for private conversations. However, they hadn't…-

In the sudden warmth that enveloped me, I forgot what I was going to ask. The power of the sun poured down like a waterfall. Perhaps I still had a slight fever, or maybe my water power hadn't fully stabilized. His power helped my body regain balance. And the answer to my question directed at Felix came back in a strange form. "It's better if no one stays by my side." "...?" Wondering what he meant, I slightly tilted my head and looked up at Felix. Seeing his somehow deflated expression, I…

Today was finally the day I would face the Second Prince Callian, the crazy male protagonist from the original story. Of course, I already knew what Callian looked like thanks to seeing his portrait in the imperial palace several times, but seeing a portrait and seeing someone in person are clearly different matters. "Huh......" "Are you nervous? Why are you sighing like that?" The massive subjugation of demonic beasts living in the northern territory. This subjugation operation, which took a full…-

The first day of the New Year's ceremony. When the tall gates of the imperial palace where the Empire's ruler resided opened and the ceremonial carriage carrying the Emperor and Empress appeared before the numerous imperial citizens lined up, wearing benevolent smiles, thunderous cheers began to pour into the streets. "Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" "Long live Her Majesty the Empress!" Following immediately behind, as the carriage carrying Ian, the Empire's Crown Prince and future monarch,…

"What's there to feel unfair about? I'm only clear-headed thanks to the holy water I poured into myself." "......" The high temple's holy water. Not only was it extremely expensive, but holy water containing holy power was very rare, so in keeping with the class system, priority went to the imperial family and high-ranking nobles. I, merely the eldest daughter of a count's family, had never even seen this highest-grade health supplement. "How nice for you. Being able to use such good things…

The Emperor's voice, which until just moments ago had called himself a powerless Emperor, began to press down on me. The second prince Callian, son of the imperial consort whom he was too weak to protect. Though he spoke indirectly, it meant that Callian had volunteered for demonic beast subjugation to escape the Empress's harsh persecution. Although the Empress was struggling to secure her position by competing with her own son because Ian's power had grown unexpectedly strong, she was ultimately…

"What is this, Ilena." Before lunch time, hundreds of petitions flew into the Crown Prince's office. On the table that already had no space for documents, petitions signed personally by not only knights but also servants of the Crown Prince's palace contained content strongly opposing my resignation. "Have you been going around the entire Imperial Palace saying you're quitting?" "......That's not it." "The Sun Palace, Moonlight Palace, our palace, and even the Capital Defense Knight Order and…

"It's Aide Weiana!" "Eek!" "I haven't even finished writing the official document and she's already here to rush us!" Ian was right. I was strolling around the Imperial Palace to enjoy my leisure time, making it clear that I officially had two days of vacation left, when my mood started to deteriorate. Imperial administrators rushing busily around the vast Imperial Palace were terrified the moment they saw my face. I was starting to get angry. 'What on earth did I do?' Seeing people I…

I desperately realized that the novel's description of a drop of cold sweat trickling down one's spine wasn't an exaggeration. I had to maintain my expression while clutching my trembling hands and confess as if in a confessional. "The future I dream of is managing my territory while receiving a pension after a stable retirement." "Hmm...... Really?" "Yes. I'm merely the Crown Prince's aide after all." "According to you, you have absolutely no interest in the position of Crown Princess?" At…

After that, throughout the meal, I had to repeat the same words over and over to my father, who continued his interrogation until the uncomfortable dinner finally ended. Despite telling him that nothing was happening between Ian and me, and that I was quite satisfied with my work, my father nodded with a somewhat uncomfortable expression, allowing me to barely escape the topic. I couldn't help but sigh in relief. "Then why did you suddenly come home?" "I just wanted to come home." "......" I…
