He glanced at Nina and she continued to talk.

“What if the Princess and His Majesty are on the same side? Or if he says he’ll let it go.”

“Then I must fight.”

He answered without hesitation.

“I hope that’s not the case. I don’t want to have my neck hanging from the window sill yet.”

He calmly continued. I wondered if it was the royal family’s aptitude to talk so much about their own death.

‘Well, if a candidate to the emperor seat doesn’t quietly die in bed, he’ll probably be hanged somewhere.’

Whether it be war, civil war, or rebellion.

It was such an era, in such a world.

Nina nodded her head and said.

“Even if you fight, it’s too early to think you’ll lose. I also heard something interesting.”

“What kind of story is it?”

“The Saint is a fake.”

Nina smiled as she extended her lips. Faradiv’s expression became strange.

“That’s an interesting rumor. Fake saint… I don’t think it’s going to be used as a comedy.”

“Isn’t it a tragedy rather than a comedy?”

“Maybe.”

After muttering, Faradiv looked at the teacup. His head started spinning at the new information.

“I hope the story ends well.”

At Faradiv’s words, Nina nodded her head.

“I hope so too.”

At that moment, Lady Adele lightly approached from the other side.

She asked if the refreshments were to their liking and whether they would like to have something new prepared, she continued.

“The flowers are in full bloom in the garden. Go and take a look.”

While her guests were leaving, Nina was escorted by Faradiv into the garden so the table could be cleaned up. In the garden, hollyhocks were in full bloom, boasting colorful splendor. The colors of the flowers hanging from the straight steam were amazing.

“The hollyhocks are huge.”

Nina admired the hollyhock, which was taller than her height. Faradiv said.

“I heard that the hollyhock flowers here are the pride of Lady Adele. It is said to be a new variety brought from South Arakil.”

“I see.”

“I heard that Silver Lake is also very beautiful.”

“Yes, it is really beautiful.”

Nina let out a sigh.

Since the arrival of Mimina, the four seasons at the silver lake have always been new and beautiful.

Seeing Faradiv’s smile, Nina laughed.

“Did you want me to invite you?”

“It was an aristocratic question.”

“If it were my house, I would invite you, but I can’t do it my way.”

“That heart alone is enough.”

If it was her home, she would have invited him, and that was enough.

“If I build a house on my estate someday, I’ll invite you.”

“I look forward to it.”

He looked at Nina quietly. It was a gaze that, for Nina, it couldn’t go unnoticed. It was hard to receive it straight, so she lowered her gaze.

“Dame Nina.”

“Yes, tell me.”

Faradiv laughed as she raised her head and challenged his gaze.

“I am longing for the Dame.”

It was a polite word.

Nina felt her cheeks turning red. No matter how much she looks after him, there was no reason to say this.

“Do you want me to become the Crown Princess?”

Faradiv responded to her provocative remarks.

“If possible.”

Nina’s eyes widened, but Faradiv was still serious.

“I don’t know what Dame Nina thinks of my confession or my heart, but I have always thought that way from then until now.”

Faradiv said “However.” and chose his next words.

“For Dame Nina, it was a simple burden so I saved my words. Just because I don’t talk much doesn’t mean that I don’t love as much.”

Nina’s golden eyes fluttered. Feeling a little hope swelling up, he continued.

“I don’t care if it’s not as a lover, even if it’s not the same love, even if it’s the smallest piece you could give, I’m happy with it.”

Nina gave strength to the hand that was holding him.

“Prince Faradiv, I know you meant it. I know, but I can’t repay that.”

“I want to repay you-.”

“I know this is not the answer you want right now, but that kind of love will make you tired.”

Nina smiled.

“I can probably be very sweet to the prince. If we continue to be together, we may develop new affection. I’m not saying that the relationship you’re making is bad. We’ve come this far, too.”

Nina took a deep breath and wiped her smile.

“But I-.”

Nina tried to speak while looking at his watery water-colored eyes. He did nothing wrong, and neither did she. But why is it so difficult to say this?

“Dame Nina! Dame Nina!!”

I saw Lady Adele running away screaming out loud, forgetting her manners. The two flinched like startled rabbits and looked at her as Lady Adele breathed heavily.

“The Duke’s townhouse was raided by bellac!”

“!!”

Nina took her palm and ran away. Faradiv grabbed his empty hand as he felt her palm slip away in an instant.

‘But you’ll always end up running away like this.’

“Lady Adele, thank you for the invitation! Prince, next time!”

Nina shouted running as it was, without stopping.

Should I say that I’m glad to at least receive a goodbye?

I waved my hand, but Nina didn’t look back. Disappointed that he couldn’t run together, he bit his lips slightly and approached Adele.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes, my God. It’s the first time I’ve run like this at my age.”

“The Duke was attacked by Bellac?”

“Yes, they said they were attacked by a very large bellac.”

“That is strange.”

Bellac has no intelligence and indiscriminately attacks humans. It was a strange thing for such a creature to target an expensive street lined with townhouses and attack the Duke of Luverne.

‘This is of course, as long as no one controls it…’

I suddenly remembered the human laboratory hidden in the dark and got goosebumps on my back.

‘No way.’

That can’t be true.

But, how many advanced nations have collapsed by saying that there was no way something was true.

Faradiv bit his lip. Looking at the direction in which Nina ran, he wished her good luck.

Nina cut off the horse from the carriage and mounted it as if it were hers. People opened their mouths to see Nina riding on a horse without a saddle while wearing a dress.

As she entered a crowded place, more and more people were now yelling and swearing. She had to drive her horse to and fro to avoid people.

Nina who clicked her tongue at the dwindling speed, stood up on the back of the running horse and flew her body onto the roof next to her. She sat lightly on the roof and whistled. The Luvernian half-breed correctly understood the whistle to return.

Walk up to the townhouse on your own.

Nina called the north wind to speed her up. As she stepped on roofs, fences, and spires, her eyebrows arched when she arrived into a high-end residential area lined with townhouses. She ran lightly on the edge of the iron fence, sharp like spears, and arrived at the townhouse.

As she landed on the lawn, a murmur could be heard from within the building, but it was not a noisy atmosphere. If not for the windows that were broken here and there and for the visible ground that was cracked and hollowed, it was a commotion similar to a lot of people preparing for a party.

Confused, Nina raised her voice and stepped inside.

“Young master! Jean! General Manager!”

Jean looked at her from the stairs on the second floor.

“What? Are you here already?”

Nina opened her mouth at his easygoing words. Jean clicked his tongue to see her messed-up hair blown away by the wind and pitilessly wrinkled dress.

“Did you fly right away after hearing the news?”

“Of course I did! What? What happened? I heard Bellac attacked!”

Jean came down the stairs.

“Yes, we were attacked. It’s been a long time since a Bellac this big, isn’t it? It was about the same size as the one we saw in the underground canal a while ago.”

“Jean.”

Nina wrinkled her eyes and Jean chuckled and sharply said.

“Trust us.”

Nina stopped talking. On the stairs, Charlotte, Raja, and Kell put their heads out, side by side and looked at the situation below.

Jean spoke coldly.

“We wouldn’t collapse if there’s only one bellac coming at us. What do you take the Dark Knights for? You can leisurely say, ‘Oh, is that so?’ and drink all the tea on your cup before coming back.”

Tuk.

He stabbed her in the shoulder.

“Even without you, we are alive and well. It’s okay. We can fight a bellac or two, or even a herd of them. When did you raise us to be so weak?”
