“A ruler? His Majesty the Emperor or our dad?”
“Yes, those people. What do you think of them?”
With a hopeful expectation, Ludvihi looked at Evelia.
Agares, who was sitting on the chair, also focused his gaze, which had become deeper.
“Chicken skewers. Delicious chicken skewers.”
…So are we chicken skewers?
Of course. What to expect from a fiveyearold.
Laughter seeped out from the mouths of the two rulers.
The ruler, held high, and the cheap chicken skewers commonly seen on the street, had nothing in common.
“I saw it at the Chubok festival. Chicken skewers.”
“If you want to eat it, I’ll buy it for you. Now.”
As Agares immediately got up, Evelia seemed to deny what he was saying.
“No, we’re talking about what a ruler is right now. I want to eat it, but I just said a ruler is a chicken skewer.”
“Why is the ruler a chicken skewer?”
Ludvihi looked at Evelia’s clear oceanlike eyes, realizing that she wasn’t just spouting nonsense.
“I could eat chicken skewers whenever I wanted at the Chubok festival. They’re delicious chicken skewers, but they weren’t that precious to me.”
The two rulers quietly nodded. Their faces were serious as they listened to the words of the small child, who barely reached their waist.
“But, there were many people who couldn’t eat chicken skewers. I saw some grandmothers and friends my age. For them, chicken skewers were very precious.”
Being still a child, she didn’t speak as she thought.
Evelia added another sentence after organizing her thoughts again.
“I can live well without chicken skewers. I have a lot to eat and a lot of money. But for the people out there, the chicken skewers at the Chubok festival are the most precious thing at that moment. So, the ruler is a chicken skewer.”
After a moment of silence.
The adult ruler, who literally had a world under his feet in obedience, smiled at the corners of his mouth, seemingly satisfied.
The young crown prince, who was just about to spread his wings to become a ruler, looked solemn.
Chicken skewer.
Ah. He felt like he understood a little now.
The weight of a ruler, who had to fly down to the lowest place and become an infinitely heavy desire.
The young ruler never forgot these words for the rest of his life.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]When Ludvihi returned to the palace, he sat down and reviewed the contents of today’s state council meeting.
The quill pen that had been busily moving on the paper stopped momentarily.
He found and touched the petal that he had placed in a visible place.
The voice of his only friend kept echoing in his head.
‘The ruler is a chicken skewer’.
To the wealthy nobles, chicken skewers weren’t important. They could do without it.
But to the starving commoners, there might be nothing more desperate than that.
Yes, it was the same for the emperor, as his small friend had said.
The nobles didn’t need a ruler. Even without him, they would be rich.
However, the more life was difficult for the common people, the greater their expectation for the ruler, and their hope was also great.
The disappointment that came when those expectations were not met was indescribable.
He who had stroked the petals a couple of times with his fingers, stood up from his place and looked out of the window.
His friend’s words about the nobles’ territory beyond caught Ashrathhen’s eyes.
The imperial blessing, which even the current emperor Caraille did not possess, appeared very rarely.
His gaze, still full of an unrefined boy’s spirit, swayed.
The young ruler stood like that for a long time.
…He seemed to have found his path, to what kind of ruler he would become.
