"I hear that in other countries unaware of these realities, secret gatherings of the believers of Mort religion are increasing. They're growing so rapidly in such a short time that it's becoming difficult to gauge their scale." "There must already be many believers within Zenovia too. Vasans have been infiltrating through Duke Brahe's territory for a long time. Even though His Majesty has now declared the severance of ties with Vasa, how can we stop those who have been brainwashed in the shadows for…

"I need to find my way home......" Though he wanted to pretend not to notice and find his way home, Theo became very curious about that small green tree. Eventually, five-year-old Theo, losing to curiosity, tiptoed closer to that tree. "Woww. Pretty tree!" It was a fairly small and pretty tree, just thick enough to barely hide Theo's body. Just as Theo, smiling brightly, brought his small palm to the tree… "Ah! Cold!" Suddenly water splashed on Theo's cheek. Theo rubbed his wet…

* * * The young lord and lady of Winchester Grand Ducal House continued their unconventional approach by appearing together publicly in downtown Winchester. It was surprising to see them accompanied by such a small entourage for a grand ducal house. Only five people in total—three guard knights, aide Khalid, and a maid to attend to Hailey. At Hailey's request to walk a bit instead of just passing by in the carriage, the two alighted and walked side by side. There was another…

The wild ducks had all disappeared from the imperial palace lakeside. "I ordered the production of a proper duck boat, yet why have I not heard any news? Report to me." Caenian repeatedly clenched and opened his empty fist. The soft sensation was disappearing by the second. "I, I shall report, Your Majesty." The row of attendants wiped sweat from their foreheads. It was always like this after Duke took Bestia away for one reason or another. The man who looked exactly like the former emperor…

* * * Yuelina and Theo climbed the hill behind the estate. Warmth rose from their hands clasped together. Theo pointed to a round grave visible in the distance. Yuelina looked at the lilies placed in front of the grave. "Someone must have visited." "Indeed. Lilies, not roses." Yuelina placed wildflowers she had picked from the garden next to the lilies. The tombstone in front of the grave read 'In memory of Grand Duchess Karenrose.' "Mother. I'm finally greeting you." Yuelina…

* * * 〈First Consultation with His Highness the Grand Duke〉 The smell of alcohol. The smell of alcohol vibrates through His Highness the Grand Duke's study. His Highness the Grand Duke has no expression. No matter what question I ask, his answers are brief. I asked about his memories of the last war situation. His Highness emptied the glass of alcohol and spoke with an indifferent expression. He said the enemy had coated their sword tips with poison, causing horses cut by the…

* * * 〈First Summer Vacation Preparations〉 I've packed all the necessities. Fresh flowers for Sister. My report card for His Highness the Grand Duke. Homemade cookies for the Tea-Pie ladies, Maelyn, and Sister Raye. Ah! And a special book for Secretary Ulysse! I miss everyone so much. Especially Sister Yuelina. She sent me many letters and gifts.

* * * Yuelina woke up a little earlier than usual. Theo was still asleep beside her. She raised her upper body and stared blankly out the window. The scenery outside visible through the gap in the curtains was still dim. It was still dawn. Huh? But something fluffy was continuously pouring down between the curtains. Curious, Yuelina got up and gently pulled them open. The first snow was falling. She gazed at the snowy scenery with a serene face. Yuelina was no longer unfamiliar with…

* * * Today was the day Yuelina visited the temple. Lambros checked his well-ironed priest robes and carefully examined whether there were any foreign substances on his teeth. Daniel, who was watching him, also applied fragrance oil that he had bought at a high price from the plaza to his wrist. "What's that?" "It's jasmine fragrance oil. The Saintess once said she liked the scent." "Let me have some too." After sharing the fragrance oil, the two waited for Yuelina in the temple…

* * * Theo stared fiercely at the area below the terrace window. Yuelina sat at a well-maintained garden table drinking tea. Camilla was with her. That damned old hag still hasn't gone home. Despite saying the empire was chaotic and busy, Camilla kept delaying her departure date. When Yuelina went on a week-long spring outing, she stayed behind claiming she would look after the household in her place. When Yuelina returned from her trip, Camilla still hadn't left, saying she wanted to…
