Daniel and Ruans, who received a note saying that the operation was successful, would be too busy becoming the emperor of the Isuter Empire to question whether the assassins survived or not. Even if all the assassins were dead, they died while on a mission, so they wouldn’t care too much.
The spreading fire from the white villa soared up to the sky. The sparks spread to the trees. Fortunately, there were enough personnel and water to sufficiently extinguish the fire.
The white villa was completely burned down. The fire was quickly suppressed.
Thanks to Lorencia’s foresight, the fire did not spread widely.
The sparks that had been on the white villa kept blowing in the wind. If it weren’t for Lorencia’s foresight, there would have been a big fire in the forest. When small sparks landed on trees, they threw dirt, and when slightly larger sparks transferred, they quickly suppressed it by spraying water.
Morning came. People from the Isuter Empire came to check on the white villa. They found the burned corpses wearing the clothes of Adolf and Ines.
In fact, they were clothes put on the assassins, but the people from the Isuter Empire who discovered them thought that Adolf and Ines had burned to death.
Emperor Adolf and Empress Ines’ funeral was immediately held. The funeral proceeded briefly.
As soon as the funeral ended, Ruans was instantly enthroned as the emperor. It happened just as Lorencia had seen in the future. A sigh of relief unconsciously escaped.
But Ruans becoming the emperor meant that he would soon come to the Poloyd Empire.
“Emperor Ruans will come here soon. And he will say harsh words to Tel.”
“It’s fine. I won’t be hurt by whatever he says.”
“I’m not okay with that.”
Teishar couldn’t act rashly against Ruans, who had become the emperor of an empire. No matter what bad things he said, Teishar had to endure it.
People do not change easily. Ruans is like that. When Lorencia looked into the future, she was irritated by Ruans’ overbearing attitude.
“No matter what he says, it can have no impact on me.”
Teishar held Lorencia’s hand tightly. Then he opened his mouth with a gloomy face.
“Loa. What I’m worried about is not Emperor Ruans. My concern is something else.”
“What are you worried about? Tel. Tell me.”
“I’m worried that Emperor Ruans will fall for the beautified Loa and chase after you.”
Teishar’s biggest concern was that Ruans would become obsessed. If the nobles in the Poloyd Empire knew that they were lovers, they wouldn’t rashly make advances on Lorencia.
However, if the emperor of the neighboring empire personally proposes, the story would be a little different. Before Ruans puts in a proposal, Teishar had to nicely propose to Lorencia.
Once they officially became engaged, he could stand proudly by Lorencia’s side.
After that, they would have the coming-of-age ceremony together and there was still a long way to go until the wedding, but that was fine.
If he could stay by Lorencia’s side in the future, he could wait. If he could just attend to her after getting married, his lifelong happiness would be guaranteed.
“Tel. Emperor Ruans said he would accept the saint of the Ella Temple as his empress.”
“But you never know with people’s hearts. Loa, even if you look into the future, people’s hearts can change in a fleeting moment.”
“A fleeting moment?”
“Yes. In that fleeting moment, the future can change in any way. So you shouldn’t be sure about everything.”
Lorencia nodded at Teishar’s advice. Teishar told her not to unconditionally rely on the power to see the future. He taught her to only check it when it’s really important and to just use it as a reference.
She was so grateful to Teishar for telling her not to use her power arbitrarily, but to utilize it well.
“But will Ruans fall for me after seeing my changed face and chase after me?”
“There’s no way he’ll fall for me and chase after me. He calls me a monster. The only reason Ruans wants me is for my power to see the future. More importantly, Tel.”
“Yes. Loa.”
“We promised to go on a date before I enter the Gloston House. You remember, right?”
“Of course. A date with Loa is a promise I can never forget.”
Teishar recalled the memories of happily spending time with Lorencia here and there in the Isuter Empire. Perhaps because they were happy memories, just recalling them made his heart restless.
“So about that. Tel. If you have time today, would you like to go on a date?”
“Loa. Are you asking me on a date?”
“Yes. That’s right. A date request.”
[This is the timeline separator]Lorencia saw a future where Teishar had a very difficult time after she went to the Gloston House. She had expected him to have a hard time being apart from her.
Honestly, she didn’t want to leave the Spencer House either. She wanted to stay by Teishar’s side. So she decided to go on a date before leaving for the Gloston Duke’s residence.
“Young Lady Lorencia.”
“Yes. Blondie.”
“Owenna and Kate will secretly guard you from behind.”
“Got it.”
“And I will stay at the Duke’s residence today to organize your luggage.”
“Already…?”
“Soon, the Gloston family will announce the birth of a new duchess.”
Blondie said this while beautifully braiding Lorencia’s hair and inserting a ruby ornament.
“But before that, we need to cancel the terrible Pol Heredian surname.”
To do that, they needed the seal of the Pol Heredian family that Brant had.
“If the Isuter Empire side does not cancel your family’s surname, Lord Baello will open a world trial.”
To cancel a family’s surname, there needs to be a cancellation document with the seals of both the head of the family and the emperor of the empire. This law applies identically in all empires in this world.
“There have been cases in the past where a lost child living in another empire with a different family’s surname had to cancel it through a world trial. It took time, but the child found their original family’s surname.”
“Blondie. It won’t go to a world trial.”
Before that, her count family’s surname will be canceled.
“If a world trial is held, all the empires in this world will focus on the Isuter Empire. It would be fortunate to win the trial, but if they lose, they will be disgraced, so it shouldn’t go to a world trial.”
“You’re right. They’ll have no choice but to cancel my surname.”
Many things she experienced while coming here flashed through her mind and then disappeared.
“Now that I enter the Gloston Duke’s residence, I won’t be able to have the breakfast Tel brings every morning.”
“The Gloston Duke’s residence also has people with cooking skills on par with the Spencer Duke’s chefs and patissiers waiting for you, Lady Lorencia.”
“That’s not what I meant, Blondie.”
Lorencia shook her head.
“I won’t be able to see Tel’s heart for me at every meal.”
The meals were always excellent and delicious. But what Lorencia felt was Teishar’s heart in preparing the meals. Despite being busy as the head of the Spencer Duke’s household, she liked that he took care of her at every meal.
“I won’t be able to see Tel’s heart for me every morning.”
Lorencia became a bit gloomy at the thought of not being able to see Teishar’s face smiling satisfactorily every time she deliciously ate a bite.
“My thoughts were short, Lady Lorencia.”
“It’s okay.”
“It’s all done. You look beautiful as always today, Lady Lorencia.”
Lorencia, who came out wearing an outdoor dress, stepped out of the residence with Teishar’s escort waiting at the door.
Outside, she saw a luxurious white carriage at a glance. Holio was waiting with the carriage door open.
“It’s a really nice carriage.”
Lorencia exclaimed as she boarded the white carriage.
“It’s a carriage specially ordered for you, Loa.”
Teishar said proudly.
“This carriage has a 3rd circle shield stored in it.”
“3rd circle? You’ve given it quite a strong magic.”
Imbuing objects with magic is expensive. She heard that the price of a 1st circle magic scroll commonly used by nobles is equivalent to the annual food and living expenses of an average family of five commoners.
So how much money would it have cost to imbue a 3rd circle shield magic?
“Even if it falls from a high cliff, it won’t break.”
“That’s amazing.”
While examining the interior, Lorencia noticed something embedded in the white fabric.
“What are the red gems embedded in the wall?”
“They are magic stones. When it gets cold, they will automatically make the inside of the carriage warm. By the way, the blue gems embedded in the carriage wall over there are also magic stones, but these will make the inside of the carriage cool when it gets hot.”
“Shield magic and even magic stones? It’s an incredible carriage.”
“Actually, this carriage was made just for you, Loa. I’d be glad if you accept it as a gift.”
“Thanks for the gift, Tel.”
Lorencia nodded.
Lorencia recalled Blondie’s words. She looked straight at Teishar and smiled. In his beautiful red eyes under his long eyelashes, her image was reflected.
“I’ll cherish it and ride it.”
“It was worth preparing.”
Lorencia’s smile made Teishar’s heart pound.
The carriage started moving. Lorencia opened the carriage window and looked outside. She saw the beautiful and wide garden of the duke’s residence. The sun was warm, and the floral scent carried by the fluttering wind made her feel at ease.
The two used teleportation while riding the carriage. And the place they arrived at was the capital of the Poloyd Empire.
