“Where are you going?”

“I’m going to see the Crown Prince and others. I haven’t seen them for a few days.”

If I continue to be lazy, I might be caught and eaten by Kashar again.

Whether he noticed my intention or not, his narrowed eyes became even sharper.

I quickly left the restaurant.

‘Not a rabbit running away.’

But if there were one more incident like yesterday, I felt like I would lie in bed for another week.

I went out to find Louis and Evan.

The twins would undoubtedly be at the riding ground today as well.

‘The kids are lucky.’

Louis and Evan were currently on winter vacation.

Private tutors hadn’t visited from mid-winter to early spring.

‘Except for their favorite magic subjects, they have the freedom.’

Today, they would probably go through the course of playing in the fields before heading to the Matab.

I headed to the riding ground without any suspicion.

‘Oh? It’s Mika.’

Mika was standing at the entrance to the riding ground.

Since he was standing in front, my guess was undoubtedly correct.

But.

‘Why is Emma here?’

Standing next to Mika was Emma.

I stopped approaching and quickly hid behind a tree.

‘But why did I hide?’

After hiding, I was dumbfounded.

In the meantime, the two shyly looked at each other, then carefully held hands.

I peered at the shocking scene with only my eyes behind the tree.

‘Look at these two.’

What kind of strange atmosphere was this?

The two blushed at just holding hands.

‘Unbelievable.’

Watching Mika and Emma, I rolled my eyes.

I wasn’t concerned about their social status, so I hadn’t noticed the relationship between the two at all.

‘Emma, did you say Mika is too good-looking and it’s overwhelming?!’

Did she deliberately let the words slip to take a picture?

My head was spinning with conflicts.

As I watched them, the two became closer.

Mikael, who briefly let go of Emma’s hand, fumbled in the air. Emma just stood with her eyes lowered.

‘Seriously, a hug?!’

My heart pounded rapidly.

Without realizing it, I found myself closing my mouth.

‘Exciting, it’s like watching a movie!’

My internal scream echoed.

Of course! Love is most enjoyable when I’m the one doing it.

But watching someone else’s love, especially the love of people I know, was also quite entertaining.

1 second. 2 seconds. 3 seconds…

The moment I waited for them to get closer.

“Princess Eileen?”

“Yikes!”

I turned around, closing my mouth.

There stood Rudvion.

‘I almost screamed!’

I quickly checked, but the atmosphere between the two remained the same.

But Rudvion, who didn’t know what I was doing, seemed perplexed.

“What are you doing here…”

“Hush!”

I covered Rudvion’s mouth with empty hands.

‘Be quiet!’

I gestured with my mouth, and he nodded in confusion.
However, I wasn’t completely at ease.

While still holding Rudvion’s mouth shut, I observed the newly formed couple.

Mikael, who had gathered the courage, was now hugging Emma.

‘They hugged! They really hugged!’

Internally, I cheered.

To think that Mikael, who had always been spirited, would have a lover. It was a special feeling.

‘I never thought Emma would be the one, though.’

Anyone’s happiness was okay if it made them happy.

It was time to bow down a bit to get a closer look at the lovely couple.

A low sigh from behind was heard.

“Oh, right!”

I was too overjoyed and forgot that Rudvion was there.

Moreover, I was still covering his mouth.

“Oh, couldn’t you breathe? I’m sorry.”

I quickly removed my hand.

His face clearly bore the imprint of my fingers; I must have pressed quite hard.

“…No, it’s okay.”

“Are you sure it’s okay? Your face is so red.”

Rudvion was much redder than the lovers standing there.

‘It couldn’t have been life-threatening.’

I hadn’t been pressing that long.

I asked about his condition several times, but all I heard were assurances that he was fine.

“Let’s go somewhere else for now. Somewhere other than here.”

I gestured towards Mikael and Emma.

“…Ah.”

Now that they finally noticed the lovers, Rudvion nodded.

Quietly, Rudvion and I left the scene.

‘I came to see Louis and Evan, but it can’t be helped.’

There was only one entrance to the riding ground.

I would probably have to wait like this until the kids came out, so today I might have to give up.

‘Even thinking about it again is shocking.’

I was secretly in a relationship. Moreover, without revealing a hint.

But when I thought about those two, for some reason, I found myself nodding in agreement.

‘Don’t they match well?’

Emma, who had changed dramatically, and the quiet yet firm Mikael seemed like a good combination.

When I made up my mind to cheer for the two, a rustling sound came from above my head.

“Huh?”

Casually lifting my head, something large and white was falling towards me.

But it wasn’t going to hit my head.

“Be careful.”

A gray spirit pushed the snowball away.

As if that wasn’t enough, Rudvion was wrapping his arms around my shoulders.

“It’s just snow. Thank you.”

“Sorry.”

Grinning, he retreated looking embarrassed.

Above where I had been sitting, a thick branch was swaying up and down.
