Agares was in quite a good mood.
For some reason, the corners of his mouth curled up at the thought of the little one asking for his help.
There’s nothing wrong with getting closer to my amusing little one, even in this way.
“I’m going to the Blessing Festival, but I’ve hardly ever been, so I don’t know where to go to enjoy it. They all teach me strange things……”
When she said that she was going to the Blessing Festival, clenched her fists and shone her eyes, then complained that everyone was teaching her strange things, she looked as gloomy as wilted spinach.
He liked that her emotional expression was so clear and honest. Very much.
“As for the highlights of the Blessing Festival, there’s no one better to recommend than me.”
He grinned as if to tease her.
Even without it, his youthful face looked even more decadent with a faint smile.
However, to a child’s eyes, it simply made the already wickedlooking devil seem even more wicked.
Where should I recommend first….?
A restaurant, since she seems to like delicious food?
Or a dessert shop, since she seemed to like sweets?
Or the place where you can see the parade closest?
“The highlight of the Blessing Festival is the parade. Shall I tell you the best place to see it?”
…Huh?
Agares had thought of the parade, but this was not his voice.
Oh, no way. Oh, really.
He nervously turned around.
Evelia also curiously followed Agares’s gaze to sneak a peek behind.
There stood a silverhaired boy, seemingly displeased, slightly furrowing one eye.
Ludwig had been fidgeting for the past few days, worried that the devil, who was wandering around the secret base in his spare time, might get closer to Evelia faster than him.
Feeling a tingling sensation in his buttocks today, he suspected that today might be the day, so he finally got up from his office chair and came up to the secret base.
His animallike intuition was correct.
The ignorant devil was trying to curry favor with the land thief by pretending to know things, which he didn’t!
It’s the Blessing Festival held in the Arcadia Empire.
Who would know better than me, the crown prince of the empire that hosts the Blessing Festival?
“…Really annoying. Hey, aren’t you busy? You should be, right?”
Agares’s usually indifferent eyes were filled with annoyance for the first time in a long time.
Seeing that kid’s face again after just a few days.
Especially when he was about to have a fun time with the little one. How frustrating.
“Of course I’m busier than a devil with nothing to do.”
Ludwig responded with a slight nod towards Agares.
You. You. Unemployed.
“You’re brave to sit in that position without knowing when to interfere and when not to.”
“You, who’s stuck in the corner of the east, shouldn’t be the one talking.”
“I’m like this because I don’t want to, you’re like this even though you want to. The situations are a bit different, right?”
“…..”
It starts again. It starts again.
All I need to know is where to go during the Blessing Festival to eat delicious food, eat sweets, watch the parade up close, see the performance, that’s all.
Evelia blinked her big eyes.
But today, she didn’t panic or get angry.
Clever Evelia had watched gardener Glen training a puppy some time ago.
He would say ‘Sit!’, ‘Hand!’, and then coincidentally wait for the moment the dog sat or gave its paw, feed it a snack, and stroke it.
After repeating the words ‘Sit!’, ‘Hand!’ several times, the dog became obedient and she clapped her hands.
Next time when the bunny and the white puppy quarrel, she can do it like this, Evelia thought, holding up the bread she had prepared.
“All right stop!”
Evelia said,
“What does a devil know about the Blessing Festival to teach a land thief?”
“How long have you lived? You barely shed your cellular state, I know better than you.”
Their war of words didn’t stop.
Evelia nodded her head.
She had to wait until they happened to stop arguing, then say ‘Stop!’ again, feed them bread, and stroke them.
She had seen everything Glen did. They listen well when you do that.
Holding the bread in her tiny hand, Evelia waited calmly.
“Cell…… Unbelievable. Don’t you ever disappear?”
“I wish someone would order for me. I am quite strong you see.”
“Wait a few years. I’ll do it for you. Go ahead and thank me in advance.”
“My magic doesn’t regulate well. Don’t blame me if you die.”
“……”
There was a brief silence in the midst of their hectic conversation.
Now’s the chance!!
“Enough!”
Evelia shouted loudly, thrusting a piece of bread into the mouth of Agares next to her.
Immediately, she rushed to Ludwig and forced another piece of bread into his mouth.
“Ugh…?”
“Goodness you are so stubborn!”
Raising her leg high, she patted Ludwig’s head once, only able to reach his bangs due to her height.
“Oh, even our rabbit is stubborn!”
Running back to Agares, she stepped on a stone, reached up and patted his head.
“This is what ‘enough’ means!”
She reiterated one last time.
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
