"Impressive? Is magic your recent interest, Empress?" Charte's words stung, but she pretended to be nonchalant. "What? Yes. I've become quite interested. I was just wondering what kind of magic would be the most impressive if mages competed. Not necessarily combat ability, but I thought about holding an event where the winner is chosen based on unique magic that no one else can perform. Wouldn't that attract more talented mages to the empire from across the continent?" "A magic…-

The standoff continued for quite some time, with neither of us speaking, engaged in an unintended staring contest. Finally, Ivester broke the silence with an awkward smile. "You're doing this on purpose, right? Just joking around." I looked at him with a desperate face. I hoped he would realize that I wasn't Leila. "Who are you? Are you really Leila?" He began pacing around the room with a face that said this couldn't be happening. "I'm sorry. I asked an absurd question. Are you sick?…

The next day, Princess Seira came to find me and apologized with a face full of discontent. Born as a late child after three older brothers, the princess said she had lived her entire life doing as she pleased and was scolded for the first time. The princess's father had become furious and her brothers enraged, telling her not to return if she didn't apologize, so she had reluctantly apologized while crying. Many things changed after returning from the Kingdom of Harua. First, wanting to do…

The palace was in a festive mood all day as it was the day of the prince's birth celebration party. She prepared with burning determination not to make any mistakes today. By now, she had perfectly memorized the names, faces, and countries. After her initial mistake, she had secretly asked Mary for help and received information about officials from each country. Despite working so hard, strangely, she still made at least one mistake each time and had become the most disliked person here. It…

Today's schedule included attending a tea party prepared by the queen of Harua, so the entire morning was spent in hectic preparation surrounded by ladies-in-waiting. Being here with so many countries together made her pay much more attention to appearances. It was like typical show-off administration. Additionally, having only just become familiar with the Oneroad Empire, she couldn't memorize all the names and faces of the attendees, and had already made several mistakes, making each day feel…

The Kingdom of Harua is a small country but wealthy due to its many mages and gem mines. Therefore, it's an alliance that cannot be ignored. Ten years ago, many countries on the map sent congratulatory delegations to the grand wedding of the current king and queen. The previous emperor of the Oneroad Empire, believing the future belonged to Charte, sent a congratulatory delegation led by him, who was then the crown prince. And here, the young Charte met Yasrin for the first time. The wedding…

"It's truly fortunate that you weren't seriously injured, Your Majesty the Empress. We will contact Duke Whyman separately from our side." Count Euros's household was extremely attentive to Yun-ah because they were vassals of the Whyman family. "I'll escort you to your room." Yun-ah, with a bandage wrapped around her head, followed the countess. "This is your room. Please rest comfortably, and if you need anything, call for us anytime." "Thank you. I won't forget your kindness." "Oh my,…

"It's fine." "But then I would feel too sorry." Charte gave Yun-ah an intense look filled with his strong desire for her to ask just once more. As if receiving Charte's telepathy, Yun-ah's lips moved. "Ah! Your Majesty must be busy, I shouldn't have brought this up. I almost became a burden again. I really should be more considerate, I'm sorry." "......It's not like I have anything urgent to attend to." Charte muttered in such a small voice that Yun-ah couldn't hear him…

Mary, Peggy, and several lady attendants were watching the royal physician's mouth with worried faces. Just as Peggy was about to ask the royal physician, Mary jumped in first with a slightly sobbing voice. "Our Empress is all right, isn't she? She's not seriously ill, is she?" "It's indigestion. Though it seems like a minor illness, it can become serious if not handled properly. She must have eaten something bad for dinner. She must have been in pain, I wonder how she endured it. I'll quickly…

"Empress, I think it would be better for you to focus on the event. And I hate insincere compliments, a kind of flattery or adulation, so don't waste your time on such useless acts." 'Tsk, how petty. So petty!' Feeling offended, she quickly turned her gaze toward the people waiting for the event. Perhaps because wealthy commoners were also present, the welcoming atmosphere felt different from usual. Those attending an event hosted by the imperial couple for the first time showed much more…
