“I was just trying to discipline them. But what on earth is happening?”

“Oh, I see. Still as harsh as ever. Should we start preparing for the concert soon?”

“Did you hear it from His Highness Charles?”

At Lucia’s words, Prince Airen nodded and stretched out his hand towards the band.

“Nia, do you need someone to teach you?”

“…….”

How do they all know so well?

Usually, noble children would have already started learning, so they should know that they need a teacher.

Receiving Lucia’s guarded gaze, the Crown Prince, who knew the secret of Nia’s birth, just swallowed his tears.

Although he had revealed it to be on her side, the method’s outcome provoked the other party.

‘I was just trying to keep the secret. Why won’t they understand that……. It’s really sad.’

However, despite that, he still had one advantageous card.

“It’s a good opportunity. Let our child feel more comfortable with Vernon…….”

“Imagine. I am with Charles, and you are with our daughter. We watch over the students who are receiving good lessons and spend some time together, leaving worries to the teachers. So, where else would you find such a good teacher?”

Being the imperial ensemble, that was how it was.
However, she could distinguish the faces of those who feared her.

Their skills might be commendable, but bringing such people as teachers would be meaningless.

Just as she was about to express her intention to refuse again,

“What is this nonsense? Moving the palace’s ensemble as you please.”

Unlike the chaotic face seen at the mansion, Lion was neat as usual.

“Well, it’s annoying to have such a disturbance. But I can’t avoid it this time. What should I do?”

When he deliberately didn’t respond and hesitated, Lion’s eyes sharpened.

And the members watching this exciting fight.

Although the word “idiot” was written on their foreheads, there was nothing more entertaining.

And they all had the same thought.

Pouring oil on the fire.

“They’re having a concert at kindergarten!”

“He suggested learning instruments together with His Highness Charles!”

“He said he watches over the children every day while drinking tea!”

However, they forgot their status as the ones to be punished.

“….Can you shut your mouth?”

But the spilled oil had already flipped Lion’s insides.

It wasn’t a problem he needed to worry about.

As he lowered his gaze, the Crown Prince approached with a satisfied smile.

“Hwiu, so you’ve had a child. Now, how about asking your younger brother to have a sibling?”

He savored the rare victory, tapped Lion’s shoulders, and slowly left the ensemble hall.

“Did you come because of the complaint?”

“Ah…. Yes.”

When she met her eyes, his excitement from that day threatened to rise again.

In a hurry, he had rushed without any excuses, and now he had no choice but to accept her excuse.

It would be better if they went out together.

However,

“I won’t go out today. I have to discipline these kids.”

“…I see. Then, please prepare well for the concert. I’ll take my leave now.”

With his farewell, Lucia nodded briefly.

And Lion, feeling embarrassed to see her face, slowly moved away, unable to detach himself.

“Commander, who will teach Nia the instrument?!”

For some reason, Lion, who was walking away, shouted loudly.

Then Lion hesitated.

“You should teach her. She’s scared of strangers.”

Lucia had no intention of asking for help.

As Lion, who seemed disappointed, started to move again,

“Commander, oh, how unfortunate. I hurt my hand while scolding. Is there anyone good at handling instruments with a face and experience? Oh…!?”

Suddenly, a person appeared behind Lucia with a magical aura.

The person reflected in her sharp sword, aimed precisely at his neck due to the sudden appearance, was,

“Lion, Commander?”

“…I, I heard the divine voice and grew up.”

“?”

“I’m really good at playing instruments.”

Lion, who began to boast about himself with ease, appeared behind Lucia.
