Joachim surely knew. That Casper would die. But he did nothing beyond warning Acelia. Even though he could have saved him. Of course, Joachim had never gone around actively interfering with the future he foresaw. Even when a bear appeared during the hunting competition, he merely observed. Though Casper flirted with everyone and lived promiscuously, had he committed sins deserving death? Not really. So why did Joachim let him be poisoned? He’s a high priest whose role is to save…

The atmosphere in the imperial palace was absolute chaos. Acelia hurried toward the residence where the Fernando Kingdom envoys were staying. Many people had already gathered after hearing the news. "You cannot enter!" "Please go back! The investigation is still ongoing." She heard knights shouting. Acelia pushed through the crowd to the front. "Sir Miller!" "Your Highness Princess Acelia." "What happened? I heard the prince has died." "......Please come this way." Since Acelia…

Today, Prince Casper's flirting continued. "I understand why the Empire has hidden the princess away all this time. With such beauty, it wouldn't be strange if wars broke out between nations over you. Like 'Spionel' from Rodic mythology." Acelia felt goosebumps all over from his greasy words and actions. Her forced smile twitched with a slight tremor. 'Spionel' was equivalent to 'Helen' of Greek mythology. The one who caused the war between Greece and Troy. 'It's just because I had no presence.…

Joachim was praying. In the solemn prayer room. Kneeling before the goddess statue holding a water bucket, Joachim was the embodiment of piety. His neatly combed silver hair, well-shaped forehead, sharp nose bridge, and beneath his long, downcast eyelashes, deep blue eyes. His face was flawlessly beautiful, but his expression remained rigid. "My Lord God, protect the foolish from the tribulations of the world." The Founding Day Festival approached. While people were intoxicated with the…

Acelia, who didn't have a particularly good impression of knights, was inwardly surprised. Whether it was the Red Hawk Knights or the Chick Knights, they had been barging in without permission, but Claude came first and stated his affiliation and name. She had never heard the greeting "Devotion to the Star of the Empire" before. It was the highest expression used for a princess. She naturally felt a softening of her heart. With a slight smile, Acelia greeted him. "Hello, Sir Miller. You're…

Acelia passed the audition. Angel spoke with amazement. "Has Your Highness the Princess performed on stage before? Your volume, pronunciation, gestures, and gait don't seem like a beginner's. You also control emotional expression well. There are areas that need polishing, but as an actor, you pass." "So can I take the lead role?" "Of course. I'd like to request it of you, actually." Acelia's face immediately brightened. She had been nervous, but it seemed her skills had shown through. I'm…

During the Founding Day Festival, the capital fills with people. It was a golden opportunity to increase followers. Moreover, Acelia had been writhing with the desire to act until Gale came to visit her. 'I could just find a theater troupe, right?' Acting was something Acelia excelled at, and standing as an actor in a theater troupe would make it easier to gain fans. The lady with the ash tree script had briefly mentioned that the troupe had rejected her script. In Acelia's view, the work…

Surrounded by ladies who rushed toward her as soon as she entered, Acelia felt slightly intimidated. Why, why. Surely they won't hit me? Unconsciously clenching her fists, Acelia relaxed her hands when Ensia greeted her gently. "Welcome, Your Highness. I was worried you might have lost your way." "The welcome greeting is unique here, Ensia. I had some business on the way." Acelia countered Ensia's veiled criticism about her lateness by questioning if this was how one welcomed…

Acelia, who had been thinking deeply, slapped her knee. "Could it be because of solving the slum problem?" Though it wasn't completely resolved, rumors would have spread throughout the slum. Since Duke Seta had begun dismantling the gangs, life would have become more comfortable. That explained why the number exceeded 10,000. Though she doubted whether achieving 100,000 followers within two months was even possible. She felt fortunate to have this much at least. Come to think of it,…

"This is too much." "What do you mean?" "The academy starts in ten days!" Bestia grumbled while waiting for the door to open in front of the emperor's audience hall. "Didn't you decide to take a leave of absence?" "That's what you pushed for, Grandpa Chancellor!" "Was it?" "Totally! You gave Grandpa Aesop thirty gold coins and dragged me all the way here!" As Bestia said, Duke had handed gold coins to Aesop. It wasn't a negative exchange of money. It could be considered a cost for…
