“Ah, wait. Congratulations on reaching that position, Commander.”
Suddenly he chased after her, abruptly handing something over.
‘…A bell?’
A bell with a golden rattle.
It was clearly not a gift that suited a sword master.
“Ah, aren’t you too old to play with this?”
He jingled the bell and laughed teasingly; it seemed he’d heard about her parental leave.
“…”
…Is he teasing me?
“My goodness! Is that the Black Knight Commander?”
“Then he’s… on parental leave?”
A few young ladies, who seemed to know about Lucia’s situation, began to whisper amongst themselves.
‘How annoying.’
The nobles who were deeply involved in the war knew Lucia’s character and quickly left their seats, but the young ladies were different.
There were times when they showed off their arrogance, trusting in their families.
Like some of the current nobles.
“I never knew you’d have a child, Commander.”
Airen spoke, halfclosing his sparkling eyes teasingly.
Despite the many eyes on him, he seemed to want to continue speaking.
“You never know. Well then, …”
Noticing that she was trying to respond moderately and leave, the Crown Prince caught Lucia’s sleeve.
Then he let go and hesitated, looking around and finally spoke with a slightly flushed face.
“Wait, just wait. What I want to say is… actually, I’ve been watching you for a long time.”
“What!?”
“Good heavens!”
“Ugh…!”
At his bombshell announcement, instead of the subject of his words, the young ladies nearby gasped in surprise.
Among them, there was even a shocked attendant supporting a young lady about to faint.
Airen was embarrassed but smiled satisfyingly.
He knew exactly how people would react to his words.
Since his childhood, he had never been satisfied.
What mischief he, with poor health, could cause from his position as Crown Prince, showed how cruel a child could be.
It was Lucia who made him come to his senses.
Lucia, when he first met her at the age of sixteen.
When Lucia joined the knightly order and was assigned to guard the Crown Prince, she treated him with her unchanging character.
And how her touch, unlike anything else, changed his life, which had been nurtured like a greenhouse plant, by 180 degrees was needless to say.
At that time, Aileen was five years older than Lucia’s age of sixteen, but a smile came again at her consistent sullenness.
And at her own heart that consistently trembled as well.
“Commander, you haven’t yet told who the child’s father is, have you?”
“…….”
‘This question is the second one. Is it insufficient even though the emperor is the guarantor?’
It was Lucia who was still worried even though she spoke so straightforwardly.
“Your Majesty…! It’s just consolation, right?”
“Yes! It’s a joke, right? It’s like a knight. A Drasen woman doing what the men do!”
The shocked maidens began to bark like sensitive Chihuahuas.
By the time the girls who had one by one verified the crown prince’s ominous expression quieted down,
A maiden with platinum blonde hair, who had been quietly closing her mouth, spoke while covering her mouth with a fan as if she were putting something forbidden in her mouth.
“Hmm. It depends on the timing. The war is coming to an end. Was there something going on there? For example, spending the night before even a wedding as a woman… perhaps?”
“Oh my goodness! In the world…!”
“Such impurity!”
The girls made a fuss as if they were the first.
Lucia just looked at the youths changing every moment in front of her eyes.
A relaxed adult does not genuinely get angry even if young children curse at them.
So Lucia was not angry.
But she remembered a passage she had just read in a book that even a young child can grow up to be an adult who gets angry without reason if the situation is not explained and simply passed over.
Concerned adult Lucia approached the less mature foxes.
The young maidens, who had been laughing for a while, blinked their rabbitlike eyes as if startled by the shadow of a carnivorous animal.
“What, what. What are you trying to do?”
“If you come any closer, I’ll tell my father about this situation!”
Lucia looked down at the frightened girls for a long time and answered the crown prince’s question.
“I have no intention of telling in the future. There are too many who spent the night with me at that time.”
At that, the innocent young maidens didn’t know what to imagine and didn’t know how to close their gaping, reddened mouths.
It could indeed cause a big misunderstanding, but it was partly true.
There were countless nights spent with both men and women during four years of battle.
The platinum blonde maiden didn’t expect her to come out like this and stepped back from the approaching Lucia with an angry face.
But then,
“Crown Prince Your Majesty! Are you alright!”
A guard protecting the crown prince quickly ran over and supported Aileen.
The crown prince was stopping the nosebleed bursting from his nose with a highly flushed face.
And from him, blood splattered, perhaps it splashed on Lucia nearby, he pushed away the soldier and came close to her.
“Ah, how did this happen? I’m really sorry. Blood on your collar…”
Watching Aileen worrying over the blood splattered on her clothes, Lucia wished he would wipe his blood properly.
Whether he knew of her discomfort or not, she stopped his hand holding the bloodsoaked handkerchief.
Then, that clumsy touch, was it planned?
In an instant, the crown prince caught her wrist.
Unable to carelessly shake off the royal touch, Lucia hesitated, and he took advantage of her hesitation to come closer.
“Do you know where the closest place is to the training camp where you were?”
The low bass whisper that resonated in her ear.
That person, mostly remembered as a 12yearold child, unexpectedly with his tall stature, overwhelmed her and Lucia was taken aback.
“It’s the crown prince’s palace where I am. Watching you was not a lie. Watching the training field where you are every morning is one of my secret routines.”
Listening to the crown prince’s whispering words, Lucia began to feel uncomfortable somewhere as he continued speaking.
“But then, your child doesn’t seem to have been born small. I’ve never seen the baby with a full stomach, so… Ah, now has this become a secret between you and me?”
“……!!”
Aileen smiled broadly enough to close her sweet eyes, then slowly moved away from a stern Lucia.
“You see, I want to be friends with you first.”
And with those words, the Crown Prince collapsed, accompanied by unstoppable nosebleeds.
