“But those boys in that house are still young.”

“There’s ambition flowing in that family’s blood! It’s like the temperament of a merchant who ends up committing a big crime.”

“The people in that house would hate to hear such words.”

This time, Mrs. Godeau openly found it amusing.

“I misunderstood. I met Cedric Lambert again recently, and his expression was completely dead. He used to be a lively and spirited person, but now all the vitality seems to have drained away. He seems a bit more mature, but he doesn’t seem like himself.”

Jane then lavishly praised the meatballs and cabbage in the photofound full of them, making Mrs. Godeau happy.

“Anyway, going back to the story of the incident, Aunt. Unfortunately, somehow I feel like the culprit of this case will never be caught. They’ll confidently roam in the darkness, or rather, in the light, satisfying themselves alone. Maybe they’re a real giant.”

Putting down her fork, she looked into the air, contemplating the unidentified culprit.

“Absolutely…, the culprit will never be caught.”

After mumbling in frustration, Jane ate the food filled with her aunt’s love, soothing her shoulders.

The situation was perfect. Carlos was too busy dealing with the properly erupted Southern Monster Wave after centuries, and thanks to that, everything was peaceful.
So, in times like these, the lover he had once had would be able to have a happy wedding. Hayden had calculated everything and proceeded with the plan.

Based on the several Monster Waves experienced in the West before the ascension and the ones experienced afterward, if we estimate, the Monster Wave in the South will be enormous. Carlos had to exert all his strength to block it for a long time.

It was a good thing that he dared to stick his face in during the banquet. He turned his cold gaze to the South.

It was time to tidy up the noisy interior.

“There are strong candidates for the bride of the Norellis Duke, rumored to be the leading contenders for the empress. Of course, it’s just the media arbitrarily choosing, all of them are young ladies from the East.”

The Empress didn’t change a single expression at Mrs. Godeau’s report.

The Empress had already been decided. What the Eastern nobles were doing was all futile. Everyone was playing in the hands of the Emperor.

“Svenya Marquis’s daughter is said to be outstanding, but I’ll overlook this report.”

The Emperor casually waved his hand. There was no need to know in detail about the masquerade. Who was outstanding was a story told among Eastern nobles.

“Alanca Lady is said to be losing the atmosphere. So, it seems Svenya Marquis is taking advantage of this momentum to host a ball.”

“Quite busy going back and forth between the East and Shalea.”

The Emperor grumbled with a deep voice.

“There will soon be a horse racing competition and a hunting competition in the palace, right?”

“Yes. So, for that reason, instead of the East, they say they will host it in Shalea. In fact, it seems they wanted to hold a yacht race on the Mel River rather than a ball. The Palace White quickly put his hands to it.”

Only now did the Emperor turn to Mrs. Godeau, as if finding it amusing.

“A yacht. That would be interesting, but to avoid the heat, one should go to the North.”

The Eastern nobles trembled at the thought of going to the chilly North.
