I wanted to twist and break the arms of Prince Tesla right away.

“… Greetings?”

He asked, glancing at the two arms the prince was spreading open.

“Yes, can’t we talk as friendly as we did yesterday? Even if it’s not a vigorous hug.”

Although the words were courteous to me, the prince’s gaze and expression remained the same.

Just as he had treated me.

As the illegitimate child of a powerless count’s family and a royal bathmaid, Zelda von Trova, just like when I was.

“Weren’t greetings yesterday enough?”

I said as I securely tied the loose belt of the bathrobe.

“It seems the position shapes a person, quite regrettable.”

Prince Tesla made a somewhat desolate expression that didn’t suit him.

I wanted to rush at the prince and strangle his neck.

By the way, how did that human get in here?

Even if the prince of the homeland had come, the queen would not have brought him to the bedroom while she was showering.

I stared at the half-open terrace door behind him.

He came in from there.

The terrace door was clearly closed before entering the bathroom.

Moreover, Prince Tesla easily possessed the agility to move at this height.

Furthermore, among the two terrace doors in the queen’s bedroom, that one would have been easy to avoid the eyes of the palace servants as it faced the direction of the courtyard.

“Don’t act so expensive, and allow a warm hug, won’t you?”

Prince Tesla said again, exerting strength on his two arms.

“This is my attire.”

I pointed to the bathrobe I was wearing, rejecting him.

“Hey, hey. People change for this reason.”

Prince Tesla, who was rejected a hug, sighed and said.

“I knew this would happen…”

Chills ran down my spine at the prince’s last words muttered like a soliloquy.

“Your Majesty the Queen, you haven’t forgotten our deal, have you?”

“…Of course not.”

“Oh, do you remember? Hahaha.”

Prince Tesla opened his eyes mischievously and suddenly burst into laughter.

“Did I forget again?”

“What?”

As I tilted my head, Prince Tesla, while tapping his forehead with his fist, made a regretful expression as if regretting something.

It seemed like a facial expression fabricated with lies, but it felt quite unpleasant.

“It’s about our deal. I came to remind Your Majesty the Queen of her role. I may have taken unnecessary steps.”

“To remind? What are you talking about?”

Perhaps…

I instinctively looked back at the vanity where I had hidden the magic potion.

It couldn’t be true, I thought foolishly…

“Here it is again.”

Logi stopped flipping through the pages of an ancient book written in the ancient language of the southern continent.

The picture of a sword already seen everywhere in the book.

“What on earth is this that keeps appearing? Is it important? The red gem stuck in the handle of the sword is pretty, but…”

It wasn’t a particularly special sword.

“People go crazy for gems, so they often appear in books. Gems are expensive, after all.”
The baby wyvern, when Logi didn’t call its name properly, began inserting its name at the end of sentences and speaking on its own.

“Is this not a book about humans but about your species?”

Logi said, placing a thick ancient book on the marble floor.

“Really? That’s strange. I don’t like gems. Isn’t my existence brighter than gems?”

“Oh, gee! Let’s talk properly.”

Logi shook her head as she looked at Moiya, who was intoxicated with self-appreciation.

As she tried to flip through the book again, a kitten rubbed against the back of her hand, seeking affection.

“It wasn’t you who called me, right? Go away. I told you not to tear the book.”

The cat that Logi ended up raising because of Moiya seemed to have accepted its real name as ‘Oh Gee.’

Whenever Logi got angry or frustrated, she would habitually shout ‘Oh, gee!’, and every time, the kitten would come and lie down next to her.

“Miyao. (Just accept me. It’s destiny.)”

Oh Gee slightly nibbled on Logi’s index finger as she turned the pages.

Tap, tap, tap [dash].

Upon hearing a knock on the bedroom door, Logi gestured for Moiya to go under the bed, and instead of hiding under the bed, Moiya entered through Oh Gee’s body.

Without hesitation, Logi stared at Moiya, who had transformed into a baby cat, and shouted toward the bedroom door.

“Come in!”

As soon as she spoke, the bedroom door creaked open.

“Let’s go on a picnic!”

Second concubine Melanie rushed in without any notice.

‘A picnic? Going outside to play? In that case, I should go out too!’

Moiya, who had entered Oh Gee’s body, glowed with red eyes.

“Melanie Mama, why suddenly a picnic?”

“The weather is nice. Originally, I was going to suggest going on the day when Tavelo Empire’s Emperor Adrian Melton arrives next week, but it’s too frustrating. We can go today and also go then!”

“Why on the day when Emperor Adrian of the Tavelo Empire is arriving… Why?”

“I don’t know? They say he’s incredibly handsome. He may not be as good as our Emperor, but still.”

“A handsome man has already come from another country…?”
