Philippe bent down and lifted Nathaniel.
Hanging loosely on his shoulders, Nathaniel descended to the lower floor.
“Someone is coming.”
The emperor looked unperturbed.
Nathaniel used magic to open the door, bit the emperor’s hair, and pushed him into the room.
Fortunately, it was an empty room; otherwise, they would have been stuck if it were occupied.
Nathaniel, calming his pounding heart, waited outside the door for people to pass by.
When the footsteps faded away, he finally tapped his father’s shoulders.
“Stop, let’s…”
However, neither of them could say anything.
It was because of the horrifying scene unfolding before their eyes.
Inside the dimly lit room, grotesque and repulsive ingredients were displayed in glass bottles.
Moreover, there was the smell of blood.
“Could there be someone researching dark magic in this empire?”
“What you experienced, Father, was also a kind of dark magic. It may not seem as strong compared to this.”
“It’s truly unbelievable.”
The emperor, trembling, began searching the room.
On one side, a notebook detailed the experiments and ingredients used that day.
There were ingredients so nauseating that just reading about them made one sick.
“This is madness. Diana, that child, did she do all this?”
“We need to get out of here now. People outside…”
Before Nathaniel could finish his sentence, the surroundings began to get unnervingly loud.
“Her Majesty is missing!”
“If something happens to Her Majesty, we’re done for. Find her immediately!”
The knights’ shouts showed no reverence for the emperor.
In the emperor’s mind, images of the knights loyal to Diana flashed by.
It was a time when he was lost in thought.
Only now did Philippe realize the urgency of the situation.
He quickly hid the notebook in his arms and headed for the window.
Fortunately, the floor they descended to was safe enough to jump down.
He opened a small window and prepared to jump.
“But back then, I was still in my vigorous thirties… Ah!”
Unable to endure it any longer, Nathaniel kicked the emperor’s back with his short foot.
Surprisingly strong, the force sent Philippe tumbling out the window.
Nathaniel followed suit.
“Are you okay?”
“Y-yeah.”
Philippe mumbled quietly, looking not at all sorry while observing his son.
Both lowered their bodies and crossed the garden.
“Can’t you move a bit with magic?”
“With this body, it’s difficult to control magic.”
Using magic here would undoubtedly expose their location.
If a battle ensued, victory was far from guaranteed.
‘The magical power available is too limited compared to usual.’
At best, they could handle two or three mages.
And they had to protect the emperor, who was of no use in battle.
“It can’t be helped.”
They crawled slowly and reached the back door.
Two guards were stationed, but it seemed everyone had gone to search for the emperor.
“I’ll distract them. In the meantime, escape and head straight down the right path. I’ve prepared a carriage there.”
Philippe nodded in response to Nathaniel’s words.
Nathaniel took a deep breath and fluttered his short wings, heading towards where the guards were.
“Let me talk about Tina, whom I met yesterday. Doesn’t it seem like she’s totally into me?”
“Not you, but me, perhaps?”
As if oblivious to the inner situation, they casually discussed the woman they met yesterday with nonchalant expressions.
“Beep, beep!”
Nathaniel cried out loudly to attract their attention.
Feeling a sense of shame almost to the point of wanting to stick his nose in a plate, he decided to endure it for now.
“Don’t you hear strange sounds from somewhere?”
“Is there a mouse?”
Comparing himself to pitiful rodents brought an indescribable sense of humiliation to Nathaniel.
More so than when Jaina referred to him as a reptile.
“Beep!”
Turning their heads towards the source of the sound, the two men widened their eyes.
“A dragon?”
“A baby dragon?”
Kneeling down as if in front of a mythical dragon, they mumbled wishes and blessings for their luck.
Watching the men with hands together, Nathaniel felt an odd sensation.
The reactions of those who saw him were sharply divided.
Whether it was Jaina and her father simply accepting him as Nathaniel, thinking of him as a monster like his mother, or even better.
In front of people who regarded him as something entirely non-human, like the two men before him, an inexplicable sense of discomfort washed over him.
“Please let me get married this year.”
“Please let me get married before this guy does.”
Moreover, such a pathetic wish.
As the two grumbling men walked away, the emperor quietly opened the door and slipped out towards where the carriage was.
As he became smaller in the distance, Nathaniel wrote something in the air silently.
[The one with more courage will go first.]Although it was a very ordinary statement, the two men sobbed, even shedding tears, and prostrated themselves on the ground.
Not missing the opportunity, Nathaniel headed full speed towards the location of the carriage.
“Where do you think you’re going recklessly?”
“Ha, hahaha. Diana.”
However, before reaching the carriage, Nathaniel faced Diana, who was pointing a sharp dagger at Phillip’s neck.
I shook my legs with an anxious expression.
It was past midnight, and the moon had set.
“It’s too late.”
Even if I had come, it was the time I should have already returned.
I got up from my seat and went out of the carriage. Four knights waiting outside approached me.
“Lady Vee.”
“Get armed immediately and mount your horse. I’m worried that something might be wrong.”
The knight who saw my expression nodded.
Luna quickly brought the horse, and I mounted it.
Knowing this might happen, I had tied my hair for ease of movement and was wearing pants.
“Let’s go.”
In case the paths diverge, one person stayed behind, and the remaining knights headed towards the townhouse. From a distance, it was undoubtedly not far, but psychologically, it felt distant.
“Please, nothing bad should happen.”
In the distance, a glint of a blade flashed.
“Your Majesty?”
The back of a woman thrusting a sword into the emperor’s neck, and…
“Nathaniel!”
The sight of a young dragon collapsed on the ground appeared.
Top Celebrity Younger Brother Bears Her Child (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.
Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
①Male pregnancy (highlighted)
