Chapter 420 (1/2)
Chapter 420: The Ehter 420
That hen I started to live separately in a palace
By the tiht, there was quite a lot of talk about hoould stay in Solay Palace
Still, at that time, no princess stayed with an Emperor beyond a specific time in the palace
However, as the years passed, the princess began to grow older, and once she turned ten, various people spoke about how the Imperial palace would soon collapse
Of course, nored their words, but these words began to catch up to Caitel; he couldn’t neglect it all his life
Most of all, what irritated i about how the E older Of course, Caitel ensured that the nobles paid the price for their words, but I didn’t feel like he did the wrong thing
The truth was the truth
However, since such a situation continued,me a separate palace It wasn’t just the usual order a father would give to his child; no, it was a royal decree, a coiant
The Emperor said, ‘Since there is no palace worthy of the princess’s prestige, or in short, since there is no palace suitable for my taste, I will demolish some of my palaces and create a new one I will have the princess stay in Solay until the construction of her palace ends’ That was the order
Unless one was an idiot, the real intention behind the words was clear as day
I still laughed when that time came across my memories The ministers and nobles were shocked about the order
I rereat, but sometimes, I couldn’t help but miss those days
It took two years for that palace to be constructed
A significant number of workers were mobilized; it could have been done quicker, butfor ance! And it was co the deadline three tiret
Still, the palace was so beautiful after its construction; it was unlike anything I had ever seen I had never been so impressed; I wanted to or, the Dazzling Light, and it was built in Agregiant
A cool breeze gently entered the palace through the open terrace doors The wind scattered aroundmy head on the bedpost The thin curtains on the bed danced with the wind The starlight, pouring into the rooined
When I iven a new bed, which made it impossible for me to sleep But one time, I laid down and tried to cal that It wasn’t assisi There was no way assisi would enter my room, especially past bedti them
The cold hand, which sometimes touchedmy head
The one ouldn’t even bother to look atI wouldn’t wake up from sleep If I let him do that, I would surely fall asleep
“Verycat… maybe notconsideration, but I couldn’t help but feel touched by it Well, this hy I liked him
I had lived here since my birth, but hter to the tyrant Emperor, I was just a princess whose status and future wasn’t certain
It wasn’t a fairy tale life I spent 12 years in Solay Palace, which was referred to as the Iot to be a special case in Agregiant’s history
It looked easy, but I lived in the Imperial Palace No matter how close one was to the Emperor, no one could stay in the Solay Palace after three years
The pendant that shone in that hand was slance A transparent diah it A mysterious color
“Pretty”
A memento from my mother, it was one that I received for the first time
That must have been why I couldn’t fall asleep
I raised my arm and tried to look at the pendant I received—the jewel reflected the starlight’s glow
Serira said that she only met my ive this pendant to me
“Ah, all this!”
Life was so surreal What was theof all this?
With otten existence of a mother whom I had never seen before
My mom’s story was unknown as she disappeared, and I simply dropped ot her
Although I was only a princess of Agregiant now, as Ferdel said, I would be a bubble ould disappear without Caitel I could see that by looking at how everyone forgotmy mom, Princess Jereina, was taboo
My dad did so simply because he didn’t like it when people spoke about her
Caitel still thought that I was his daughter Of course, that wasn’t wrong We were connected through our blood
However, Caitel wasn’t the one who raised me Serira, Silvia Ferdel, assisi All of theht, it was because they all looked after ht about her
I had enough love from the people in my life, even without her It didn’t matter
I brainwashed myself and whispered
“… mom”
Who would want to remember the fact that I was never loved?
Serira said my mother loved me, but I honestly didn’t think a mother who never saw my face could love me
Since I lived in the Iainst her wishes, she could hate hts to erase the pain
I was a real fool Stupid
The pendant inave birth tomore about her? I was so stupid
The life of a princess dragged away to carry the child of her eneiant and died because of the said child The life of that princess was a tragic one
Wiping the tears for in my eyes, I held onto my emotions
That was it
I suddenly felt soot up The sensation of being watched spread all over my body
It wasn’t uess who it was, but my senses told me that I didn’t know this person
It wasn’t my dad, that’s for sure
“You aren’t asleep yet?”
“Uh?”
So those words At that moment, the curtain on the terrace lifted, and the person’s face caht answer”
The Eht before me Havel looked aroundof this? I frowned after seeing hiet here?”
“That’s siot so tired and fell onto the bed
Maybe he didn’t co?
I doubted his sanity He entered a princess’s roo it, the words came out
“Do you wantinfor special, but I felt like I had to h
“If you’re done, can you leave?”
“Well”
Why was it thatto me as if ere close
Havel’s body came closer Suddenly, his arit hard for ed My body stiffened with the unfaut Only then had I realized that I was a woe
