I don’t feel like studying, don’t have the energy for that either, and I don’t want to watch Jeff and Hecate quarreling. So, what’s left is rest.

‘I should give her a lot of snacks without bothering her while she’s sleeping.’

Come to think of it, I remembered that I promised her a reward.

“I’ll go to bed as soon as I get to the bedroom. Pobi has worked hard pretending to be a human, so let her eat snacks to her heart’s content as a reward.”

“Understood, Your Highness.”

“Kwaaack!”

Thinking she was snuggled in my arms and dozing off, Pobi, who had her eyes wide open at the mention of ‘snacks’, expressed her joy by vigorously shaking her short, stubby arms up and down.

“Oh my, how cute.”

“I’ll prepare a few small pastries for you, Pobi.”

“Kwack, kwack!”

Sure, go ahead and eat them all.

‘Am I suddenly feeling tired? I just want to throw away the snacks and everything.’
Afterward, I yawned a few more times, and the maids expressed concern, wondering if my stomach was uncomfortable. However, I had only eaten one skewer of meat, and I hadn’t overindulged at breakfast, so it seemed like I wasn’t feeling nauseous.

“Your Highness, when you have time later, please share what you did with Her Majesty today.”

A little later.

“Oh, yes. I heard that it’s quite challenging to get an outing permit. I haven’t had a chance to go out because I’m busy taking care of you, so I’m curious.”

Changing into my favorite beige pajamas and tying up my hair, which was usually in a ponytail, into a high ponytail with a single strand, I felt much lighter when I let my hair down. Later, when I bounced onto the bed and nestled into the blanket, it felt like my body was melting away.

“I’ll sleep well, so if you get snacks later, eat quietly.”

I warned her because it wasn’t a situation where I could be vigilant, and Pobi might go wild, squawking. Next, Miranda went to the kitchen to get snacks, and Hailey stayed in the bedroom until she fell asleep, reading a fairy tale.

Normally, I wouldn’t find it interesting enough to fall asleep, but for some reason, Hailey’s murmuring voice felt like a lullaby, and soon my eyelids became heavy, leading me to unconsciousness.

“Among the clothes I bought today, this one is my favorite.”

Since I had stretched out, dinner was also delayed.

I cut a piece of bread into the corn soup, then ate peach pudding for dessert. After supporting Pobi for a lap around the courtyard, I returned to the bedroom, wiped my body, and prepared for bed.

‘How can there be such cute and lovely pajamas in the world?’

‘I want to give it as a gift to my nephew born last year, but I wonder if there are clothes that fit the body measurements of a one or two-year-old baby.’

Suddenly, I remembered the moment when Miranda and Hailey, delightedly, put unicorn pajamas on and went shopping.

Hailey sincerely wanted to send a family member to the clothing store to buy a gift for her nephew, and I, because of Jeff suddenly hugging me, couldn’t see the sign properly. I only selected what I remembered and told them.

“Kwack?”

Meanwhile, perhaps because she stayed in front of the mirror for a long time instead of going back to bed quickly, Pobi, who had been rolling around on the blanket like a ball, suddenly rushed over and stopped at my feet.

“What?”

Wondering why, when he blinked his eyes and started to eat again, he suddenly ran to the sofa, turned around, and jumped high.

And then, he bit firmly into the unicorn horn attached to the hood of the pajamas, surprising me. After telling him more than ten times that it’s not for eating but for wearing, I could finally get Pobi to come down.

“Are you still hungry even after eating snacks like that?”

Smart and competent, showing simple behavior with eyes blinded by gluttony, I wonder what Pobi’s brain structure is made of.

‘Maybe it’s becoming like me?’
No, cancel that, as it would imply that I occasionally act simple and foolish! I gestured for Pobi to follow, tilted my head, and slipped back into the blanket.

‘I’ve spent too much time outside. I should wake up a bit earlier tomorrow and study a bit.’

Come to think of it, tomorrow is the day Fleur, who promised to come in two days, will arrive with the children at the imperial palace.

‘Since I haven’t seen Ronowe and Veris in a while, and it’s likely they’ll jump around with excitement, I should study a bit in advance, even if I sleep a little less.’

Therefore, I closed my eyes tightly and concentrated on studying.

Rustle .

‘What’s this sign of popularity?’

Around dozens of minutes later, my sensitized hearing sent a warning signal in response to the noise breaking the silence.

‘Let’s stay hidden for now.’

Seven years ago, after the concubine case was resolved, the risk of an assassin coming had decreased even more, but due to the ‘possibility of the unforeseen,’ I chose to hide for the time being.

‘In times like these, having a small body from a young age is advantageous.’

I pinched Pobi’s belly, who was sleeping with a soft snore beside me, and woke him up. After silently conveying the intention with my index finger on my lips, I put a large pillow inside the blanket, making it look like I had flipped the blanket over my head.

Swoosh .

“…Someone is coming towards the bedroom.”

After safely hiding under the bed, I whispered, and Pobi’s demeanor changed.

!”

Just as he had a hostile reaction when he saw a mosquito before, shooting rays from his mouth, he began to show hostility towards an unknown opponent.
