Why do worldly people live so frantically?
Having come this far, I decided to enjoy a rare afternoon by reading a book, packed tightly.
But then I saw something like that.
“Oh no. Shit.”
My eyes, what’s wrong with my eyes?
My head told me to turn away quickly, but I was so surprised that my body wouldn’t listen.
I summoned my will to save my soul and managed to lie flat on my back. Covering my face with the book seemed to calm me down a bit.
‘It’s not even swimming season yet!’
I grumbled to myself and then realized my face was heating up a bit.
“This won’t do. I have to take a walk.”
Leaving the mat behind, I put on a shawl and went for a walk in the forest.

Duke Rocard leisurely enjoyed swimming. With freestyle, backstroke. The excitement came naturally as he swam in the wide water, free from ice, after a long time.
He had reached the other side of the lake without even realizing it.
“……?”
He was startled by the faint signs of someone disappearing into the forest in the distance, and he plunged his body into the water, leaving only his eyes visible. Then he emerged again.
He detected a savory smell scattered along the water’s edge and leaned out of the water to check. The strong scent of roasted peanuts was detected quickly because it was unusual.
He walked softly through the bushes and up to the shore, discovered the peanuts left on the empty mat, and scooped up a handful and popped it into his mouth. Then he chewed and disappeared into the water.
After he returned to the water, the wind blew and the folded corner of the mat unfolded. An old book was lying in between.
『The Happy Life of the Empress[Dash]An Autobiography of Queenna Empress』
After Rocard left, Grayen, who had been sprawled out on the deck, asked,
“What are you mumbling about?”
That was the tastiest peanut Rocard had ever eaten.
If only I could eat a little more…….
He stopped his careless reply.
“I ate dirt… um, I ate dirt.”
“You bastard!”
The two men plunged back into the water.
(This is a time divider.)
When the afternoon sun began to tilt, Grayen, now dressed, shook his wet silver hair and said,
“The imperial servant’s medal has arrived.”
“…….”
Duke Rocard’s eyes quickly dimmed.
The imperial servants and maids were selected from the nobility or children of noble families. They were secretaries and advisors to the royalty, and they were given medals to prove their status, sharing the royal authority. They were a status badge.
They were provided with rooms near the chambers of the royalty they served and were also paid salaries.
All citizens of the empire owed allegiance to the emperor, but servants and maids were allowed to prioritize their sovereign. However, incumbent servants and maids had to share the political fate of that royal family.
Grayen spoke dryly,
“His Majesty has decided to hold a competition to verify the abilities of the imperial children. From now on, he will test us.”
“It’s starting now, is it?”
“Are you confident?”
At Grayen’s question, Duke Rocard gave a scornful laugh.
“Who are you asking now? I will prove to the hero of Amatajeon that this body is a young lion.”
“I believe in you, Rocard.”
As they left the lakeside, the escorting knight Falcon greeted Grayen.
Duke Rocard mounted his horse and spoke.
“I have a place to stop by, so I will withdraw for today.”
“Meeting a woman, perhaps?”
“Ha. Not likely.”
With a furrowed brow, Duke Rocard galloped to Valroa Street.
As he stopped his horse in front of the apothecary, Lorisha immediately popped out.
Duke Rocard was amused at her glaring at him. Though there were surely moments when it was quite bothersome, it usually was.
Lorisha looked around cautiously as she led Duke Rocard’s horse to the roadside.
“What, again, why have you come? To kidnap again?”
“What do you take people for?”
As Duke Rocard extended his hand and waited, she glared again.
“……What, what do you want? Now you’re even pinching pennies?”
Pennies, indeed!
Duke Rocard tilted one eyebrow while still focusing on her. Her angry expression was vividly visible to him.
“Compensation. Time to return it now?”
“Compe…….”
Lorisha stopped talking and snapped her mouth shut.
Duke Rocard’s ears were hurting from the sound of her grinding her teeth. Yet, on one hand, he waited with an excited feeling, wondering what she would argue.
‘Going to curse again? Come on, speak up. Miss Lorisha.’
He spoke with a deliberately cold attitude.
“You didn’t ask for compensation at dawn that day because you had already taken it, right? Return it now. It will be troublesome if it’s discovered that a book from the Royal Library is missing.”
All the things bookworms do are just the same.
Lorisha rolled her uneasy eyes and stammered.
“Wi, wait a moment.”

“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
