I Reincarnated As A Noble Girl Villainess But Why Did It Turn Out This Way? Chapter 225 (1/2)

03: A Greenhouse Like a Birdcage

While I was grateful that I was being told the way to the greenhouse, the paths that led deeper and deeper into the castle served to put e There was, at least at this time, no one else who patrolled these ways That, however, did little to abate the wide-eyed stares of the guards that roaes I realised that I only hadme

”It's just… a little further I'm really sorry, Kaldia”

At least the crown prince was starting to look a little healthier, e of red crept back into his colourless face, rendering it only soun to recede

At long last, we reached the outskirts of a courtyard located in the furthest depths of the castle Glass walls fore This building was fa I'd heard of in passing, through sireenhouse and the park therein had, allegedly, been erected in the honour of Alfred's birth, then offered to him and him alone, a den for his own privacy This er in the Faldarl Palace itself, but a place that served as a sort of royal villa, built adjacent to it… this was a place none were meant to enter, apart from the royal family It was, then, of little wonder that so little of the castle servants and guards wandered about here

The crown prince, still into the effect of, 'Please, go in' Though not without a shortage of aardness to his tone

Since I had already come all this way, I was really in no position to just drop the crown prince off here and reenhouse, then laid hied to act as a room

”Thank you This really helps…”

”No need for thanks, Your Highness I'll call for the palace physician right away”

”…No No need This happens all the time I always feel better when I'ive me a moment, then I can make us sohed, told me not to make such a face, then pokedthem this whole time, it seemed

The crown prince had collapsed back there This wasn't so I could just brush off when he told me he was fine, at least I didn't think so But the prince had gone so far as to refuse that his physician be brought to look hi him in conversation I could do little but obey

If the prince's hue had still been the way it was before his collapse, then I would have turned on ardless of his sentiments, and called for the royal physician But there appeared to be truth to his words; he was looking better by the minute

”It's always been like this, you know This isn't a chronic disease or anything of the sort, but… it cooes The smell of the plants in here clear it up, for some reason That's why there's a room in here; it's been prepared for e?

He was right The furnishi+ngs of this place were all things you would have brought into your own private quarters A draped bed, a sofa, a table, a writing desk, a washbasin, even a closet were available in this place

”So, autumn, or winter come around, I just plain live here No one comes here otherwise, not unless I call for them… I can just come here whenever I want my peace It's perfect for that”

I sahat he meant, and nodded my head If I were in his position, a crown prince to a whole country, I'd love to have some privacy in my life He likely lived a life where he was always accompanied, even watched over when he was asleep It was perfectly reasonable to want soain, even someone from an entirely different line of nobility could wrap her head around that In a place like this; where everyone was an outsider looking into this birdcage, it was permissible to want for some time alone

”And, would you believe it, even Grays has never been in here Not once”

”Interesting… I didn't know that”
