This feeling poking at my neck was a warning sent by big data accumulated over nn years of life.
I missed something crucial.
‘What on earth is it?’
I need to figure it out quickly, or I’ll go crazy worrying about it.
“Let’s start by reading this properly.”
I took out the paper I received from Cahilurn and unfolded it. It contained information about the First Prince from A to Z, as if it were a complete Q&A.
“He likes winter as a favorite season. Surprisingly, he often catches a cold despite that. No need to know the color of the frequently worn clothes.”
The details are good, but it seems like there’s a lot of unnecessary information mixed in.
“There’s a lot of unnecessary details. ‘Hobbies: Early morning horseback riding, early morning walks, early morning exercise, early morning swordsmanship practice, early morning reading?’ No sleep for this man.”
The royal aide assisting the First Prince shook his head, thinking it must be tough. Then, he suddenly became curious.
“But how did you investigate in such detail?”
Unless you’re the closest aide to the First Prince, how could you write down such detailed information?
“…Is this really not fabricated?”
I glanced suspiciously at the paper and then raised my head.
“He’s not the type to fabricate things.”
Despite some unpleasant aspects, Karl was a man I could trust. He wouldn’t lie to me.
I looked down at the paper, chin in hand. Although I had prepared for the worst,
“I hope you found the origin of the fairy before this paper becomes useful.”
I earnestly hoped that I could escape from the damn original work before this paper became relevant.
However, my hope was shattered the next day. Answering Floria’s call, I went to her room and encountered the Second Prince. The Second Prince looked extremely displeased, and as soon as he saw me, he raised his voice.
“You said you wanted to go to the First Prince’s palace?”
So, the information was delivered.
I looked at Floria for a moment and collapsed right there. I could tell from the Second Prince’s expression what Floria had told him.
“He asked for my husband, and now he’s acting like this. I saved his life, and this is how he repays me? Maybe he wasn’t satisfied being a maid in the palace.”
I almost bit my tongue at the following words from the Second Prince.
“He’s already submitting documents to the First Prince’s palace. How swift. I never intended to accept that in the first place.”
‘Damn, did he already submit documents to the First Prince’s palace? Unnecessarily fast.’
The Hyllic Kingdom was quite free when it came to the careers of the palace staff. If you submitted a transfer document to the desired place, went through an examination, and got approval, you could move. Of course, not everyone got accepted, and those who returned without approval faced social repercussions.
So, I was determined to submit the documents as late as possible. I bit my lip in frustration. Then, I bowed my head in front of the Second Prince, who was expressing his anger.
“I hope you realize how difficult it will be for you if you get rejected by the First Prince’s palace after submitting documents. I will make sure to show you how tough your situation will become.”
As I had submitted transfer documents to the First Prince’s palace, I was practically his servant, so the Second Prince couldn’t touch me right away.
It seemed like the Second Prince was infuriated, and he ground his teeth. Floria, as if calming him down, embraced his arm.
“Look here. If you treat such people kindly, they’ll stab you in the back like this. If I allow it, even if you intervene, you might not see them again… or, I don’t know if you’ll ever face them again.”
The Second Prince chuckled.
“My brother has quite a vicious temper. Moreover, he dislikes me a lot, so I don’t know what he’ll do to you, who was in my palace. But he won’t be that bad.”
“Your Highness, please don’t say such frightening things.”
The Second Prince, holding the surprised Floria, continued speaking.
“If you utter nonsense about my brother or me, I won’t tolerate it. It’s better to keep that in mind.”
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.”
