"What do you think, Your Highness?" I looked at Ian with a satisfied expression, not doubting he would be moved by my words. I'm in the same situation as you. So why don't we join forces and definitely achieve our goals together? A future where Ian wouldn't flee as in the original story but would fight until the end to claim the throne, and where I would stay firmly by his side without losing my life. Perhaps Ian, touched by my initiative, would not only guarantee my safety but also reward me…-

"He must think he has some backing!" Back in the office with Ian, I unleashed my frustration. While the bruise throbbing on my arm from Callian's rough grip angered me, what infuriated me most was his audacity to display such an insolent attitude right in front of His Highness the Crown Prince. "That must have... hurt quite a bit." While I vented my frustration, Ian brought over a medicine box and frowned as he applied ointment to my arm. Watching him focus solely on my bruised arm, seemingly…

BOOM! Restoration of the First Imperial Consort's protocol rank… I averted my eyes from the Emperor, knowing it was disrespectful. But it had been twenty-three years since the First Imperial Consort passed away. After her death, the Emperor hadn't taken any other consorts, and the Empress had seized the opportunity to thoroughly erase the First Imperial Consort's existence from both the imperial palace and the entire Empire. Even I, possessing all of Ilena's memories since my transmigration,…

I answered with a strong tone to sound as confident as possible. The fact that the Empress had asked if I could put a leash on Ian—this was exactly why I had sought her out. 'The Empress wants to control even her own son Ian.' Not content with being merely Ian's solid political support, the ruthless Empress wanted to manipulate even Ian himself. That was Empress Violet's intention. 'No wonder Ian keeps her in check.' Having worked late nights in the office with him daily as his aide, I knew…

Saying we had nothing to do with the moon meant that Ian had no involvement in this commission. Winter tilted his head at my words and asked: "Then why did you personally come here, aide?" "To find out when, where, and how many assassins will be targeting the subject." "......" "Discover all plans for the hunting competition." "Do you intend to stop these plans?" "There's no need to go against her wishes. We won't do anything." If asked whether discovering the assassination plot…

Certainly, as the commanders had reported, the Second and Third Knight Orders had faithfully carried out their duties as outlined in my official documents. But that was merely the bare minimum. "Commanders, I mentioned that safety should be our highest priority for this hunting competition, didn't I?" "Yes, you did." "That's right." Sir Rommel, commander of the Second Knight Order, addressed me respectfully, but Sir Bapman's face clearly showed a question—what could be wrong when they had…

"Because it's something we must do for the Empire's development." After saying this, Ian handed me a plate with bite-sized slices of meat before taking his own portion. "Did you cut this meat for me?" "Didn't I cut it well?" "Thank you." "I'm quite skilled with a blade." Watching Ian smile while holding a knife, I sighed and asked: "By the way, is there a specific reason you decided to personally participate in the hunting competition?" "Why?" "Well......" 'You're terrible at…

It was an open secret that the Emperor and the Empress weren't on good terms. The First Imperial Consort, who was the Emperor's first love, couldn't ascend to the position of Empress due to interference from the current Empress Violet, who had her family's power backing her. Callian, who had returned as a hero, was now able to showcase his influence through the victory banquet. And on top of that, a hunting competition scheduled earlier than usual by His Majesty the Emperor's…

"It's not like I specifically stopped you......" Looking at Ian who avoided my gaze in embarrassment, I let out a deep sigh. What employee in the world would wander around freely while their boss remained seated in one place? Especially me, an aide serving the noble Crown Prince, in this situation where the most likely competitor threatening my boss's position had returned to the capital. "I suppose that's true." But what more could I say here? As an employee, I should simply follow his wishes…

"Haha...... Your Highness the Second Prince jokes too." I forced a smile to ease the suddenly awkward atmosphere. I was already well-practiced at responding with a pleasant expression to superiors who said strange things. "It's not a joke." "What?" "How about dancing with me once?" "......Are you serious?" "I just said it wasn't a joke." As Callian genuinely extended his hand to me, I could only stare at him in bewilderment. And then, silence fell over the previously bustling banquet…
