Ratius entered the dark room. "I told her not to sleep." Though he had expected it, he didn't think she would really be asleep. He sat on the bed and stared intently at Selvia's face. Even in the darkness, her face was bright. The moonlight streaming through the window seemed to illuminate only her, creating such an illusion. "Is she doing this on purpose?" Ratius said while brushing her hair aside. He had won the hunting competition. He was going to tell her what he wanted as…-

Selvia used her power to find where Rubian Promero was. Her power spread out instantly, rippling beneath the people. 'Not here, not there either.' Where could she be hiding? She walked slowly with the shadow, observing her surroundings. "Red hair and brown eyes...... Has anyone matching that description been seen? No reports from the knights either?" "No, not yet." "Hmm, with the commotion from the banquet, there are many places to hide. She'll be somewhere out of people's sight,…

"It seems we'll have to end the peace treaty banquet early." Ratius said while furrowing his brow. "Your Majesty. I think we don't need to stop the banquet. Wouldn't the losses be too great?" Selvia carefully voiced her opinion. Since Ratius said even riding horses was dangerous, they had moved to a carriage. The banquet was originally scheduled to last for two weeks. "But your life was threatened. Continuing the banquet like this......" "It's fine. I can sort this out within two days, so…

"My goodness, what am I seeing right now?" Like skin being peeled off, Lady Otix's hair color changed. Then something that had been caked on her face started dripping down. Lady Lutenpri exclaimed in shock and quickly backed away. "What in the world is going on?!" Lady Lutenpri, startled, rubbed her eyes as she watched Lady Otix getting up. "Ba-Baroness Shuren?" As Lady Otix's face crumbled away, Baroness Shuren's face was revealed. Her brown hair had somehow changed to a dark red, and…

People laughed happily. Their expressions were bright because they were feeling truly peaceful for the first time in a long while. "It's been a while since we've had such a comfortable banquet." "Did you think so too, my lady? I keep finding myself smiling as well." People chatted while casually drinking wine. A peace treaty—it was something they hadn't expected. "The overall atmosphere seems to have changed a lot since Her Majesty the Empress came to the Empire." Selvia continued…

"Your Majesty, this is enough already." "Since I received some hate recently." Selvia held Ratius's face and kissed him lightly. At the sweet kiss that broke off with a soft sound, he smiled with satisfaction. "Not enough." "Please control yourself." Selvia laughed and pushed him away. Otherwise, she would surely suffer all night. Seeing his eyes, she backed away. "It's already too late." His hand grabbed her arm. The distance between them closed again. "At times like this, Your…

He tightly held her hand as he closed the distance. Selvia looked up at Ratius. His blue eyes were rippling. "Haven't Your Majesty always left room for me?" "That's room in the heart." Ratius's eyebrows twitched. Selvia placed her hands on his chest and gently pushed him away. "This is the first time. That our opinions differ." He allowed the distance as Selvia pushed him away. Then he smiled softly and nodded. "That's right. Sometimes we need moments like this when we don't…

"What do you mean? That is your child." "Stop lying! You're trying to deceive me until the end, aren't you? How can this be my child when I can't feel anything?" Leliana's eyes became bloodshot. She was enraged as if she might lose her breath at any moment. "Leliana, that is your child. Because the only child being protected in the palace was yours." "This is my child?" Leliana's silver eyes turned to the child in her arms. She blinked with an unbelieving face. She fumbled over the…

The next day, the nobles entered the palace with somewhat dark expressions. "It's been a while since His Majesty called us to the palace." "That's why we're more worried." Count Savoy sighed. He only called high-ranking nobles including himself from the frontier. Though a council would have been sufficient, the Emperor didn't do that. This was essentially a warning. "It seems we've disturbed His Majesty's mood with recent events." "Even Sir Belrocan included a warning in his letter…

Selvia held her breath quietly in Ratius's embrace. 'The burden goes to the child?' It was unwanted. Selvia placed her hand on her stomach. Such a thing must not happen. She squeezed her eyes shut and swallowed her breath. "Selvia." Ratius took Selvia's hand. She turned her head at the warm touch. Even without adding any words, she seemed to know what he wanted to say. "I'm fine." "Selvia, when you're not fine, you can say you're not fine." "......I'm not fine." How much had…
