I hope that the embassy’s report wouldn’t read ‘Harubenta Empire occupied.’
The Emperor, sweating cold sweat with thoughts that were sufficiently realistic, spat out a short congratulatory speech.
“In your hands lies the peace and exchange between Arcadia and Harubenta.”
He didn’t forget to emphasize it once more as he became momentarily anxious.
Especially towards the Swordmaster, the Great Demon, and the nun who held the dragon’s leash all at once.
“Peace and exchange. Eh? Peace and exchange. Remember that we are not going to war. I won’t say much. Have a safe journey on the long road.”
“Everlasting glory to the Arcadia Empire!”
The ambassadors responded in unison,
“Yes!!”
A single chick holding a plump teddy bear bag also answered spiritedly, oblivious to the Emperor’s worries.
“Child, take care. And you…no, fox, you too.”
“Fox. Please take good care of Eve.”
At the greetings of Arkan and Cedric, Enril wagged his tail in joy.
If she returned safely, then she would not only have a sister but also a brother.
“Our child, don’t be apart from your friends.”
Elysia, embracing her young daughter, also admonished. Even though her husband and strong friends were accompanying her on a trip to a distant land, a mother’s worry was endless.
Elysia, who desperately hid her emotions, gently patted Evelia’s buttocks and stood up to whisper to Agares.
In a voice so low that only Hugo and Agares could hear.
“Do you remember what I said to you when the past war was about to end?”
Agares, who was just waiting for the tedious formalities to end, slightly furrowed his idle eyes.
How could he forget?
Dressed in bloodstained armor,
‘If you don’t do it right, I’ll be the first to pluck your feathers.’
The current duchess, who had threatened him with a sword, was the former strategist.
“……”
“That still stands. That saying.”
Her beautiful dress, beautiful face, and cold tone that did not match at all, reminded him of her from that precarious time.
No matter how great a general she was, she had no business with Agares, the Great Demon, and he felt no threat from Elysia’s threats.
But, after all, she was precious to the kid, so he didn’t want to openly ignore her.
Agares, looking down, spoke to Evelia.
“……Kid.”
“Hmm?”
“You should only see good things and hear good things as you grow up.”
“Hmm!”
If you become a warrior, I will be your sword, and if you become a strategist, I will gladly become your handheld card,
But please don’t walk the dangerous path that your parents had walked.
Evelia, who didn’t understand the meaning, just nodded her head as if it was a good thing.
So, the unprecedentedly composed embassy, made up of about twenty humans, one dragon, one Great Demon, and one pickle, departed.
Reiterating in their heads what they had to achieve, what they had to protect, and what they had to play.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]In front of a large horse, Evelia, who was standing boldly and looking up, pointed to the carriage with both hands outstretched as some of the embassy members approached cautiously.
“The princess should get in the carriage.”
“No, I want to ride a horse too.”
A carriage from the very beginning of the journey. What kind of absurd talk is this?
Evelia firmly refused the overly polite suggestion of the embassy members.
“Did the princess already learn how to ride a……?”
“There are ways, so don’t worry and let’s depart.”
Despite her young age, she was the only princess in the empire. She was the thirdhighestranking woman in this empire.
The embassy naturally accepted Evelia’s casual order.
In fact, she had not yet learned to ride a horse alone. But she didn’t want to sit alone in a carriage while everyone else was riding horses.
‘There’s a special way.’
Evelia, who was staring at the embassy members walking ahead, shouted out.
“Rabbit!”
“Come here, our kid.”
Agares, who understood Evelia’s heart perfectly, lifted his young friend and sat her in front of him.
“I can’t fly…… I’ll run.”
Enril, who was still a young dragon but no slower than a horse, wanted to run excitedly for the first time in a while and refused Evelia’s arms.
“Demon. Take good care of Eve.”
“You’re worried about everything.”
Even while giving a look of disapproval, Hugo had a valid reason to entrust his precious daughter, Evelia, to Arital.
His belief in the devil from that snowy field, his attitude towards his daughter, and the ruler of the Eastern Demon Realm he’d known for a very long time.
As the leader of the representative envoy of the Arcadia Continent, Hugo had many things to be concerned about, so it was inevitable.
After Hugo had left, Arital, who was left at the very end with Evelia and Enril, also announced their departure.
“Elya!!”
Although a refreshing voice urged the horse, the horse only twitched once and did not budge.
“Elya……?”
Others would just say Elya! and the horse would move forward.
Looking up at Arital’s face, as if asking why the horse wasn’t moving forward, Arital smiled slyly and whispered.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
