How can I tell him to stop sending it?

I swallowed a deep sigh.

So we looked around the gifts one by one and talked.

When Perez explained the gifts he sent during his trip, I sometimes asked questions.

"Perez, you've been everywhere, haven't you?"

"Yes. I traveled during vacation."

"So you didn't come back to the Capital?"

Perez hesitated for a moment to answer my question.

"That was my promise to the Empress. I got paid to go to the academy, and I'm not coming back to the Capital until I graduate."

"Ah, as expected."

It costs a lot of money to make a top.

I was wondering where he got the money.

"That's why I traveled. I've seen a lot and learned a lot. I've only been near the Palace since I was born. There was a lot I didn't know."

Perez said a little bitterly.

Until I met him, Perez's world was all about the falling Palace surrounding by woods.

After meeting me, he moved to Poirak Palace and things got better.

Even so, the Capital and Lombardy were all within Perez's radius of action.

So there must have been a thirst to see, hear, and experience outside more.

I tapped Perez on the shoulder and said.

"Good job. You're pretty good now. You even extort money from the empress."

Perez smiled after me and said.

"I've been to Lombardy a few times. I couldn't go see Tia. It's dangerous."

"Danger...ous?"

"Sometimes I've been attacked or something."

"The Empress tried to kill you."

Perez nodded.

He looked too calm.

"You...!"

I shouted halfway out of frustration.

"You've been like that since you were a kid! Fear, Perez, fear you'll die, fear you'll get hurt, be angry for yourself."

I was upset to think of a small Perez who said not to help him because he was addicted to poison and was dangerous with a bloodless face.

I was upset when I remembered the little Perez, who had been poisoned told me not to help him because it's dangerous with a pale face.

But Perez smiles at me.

"Why are you laughing?"

"It's nice. You care about me."

"Perez, this is really serious..."

"I know."

Perez said in a low voice.

But the smile on his face doesn't fade yet.

"Don't worry, Tia. I'm gonna survive. Because you told me to live, to survive."

That was what I said in the woods.

I can't believe he remembered that again.

At the same time, my fighting spirit boils up after a long time.

We should push the Empress and Astana away as soon as possible.

"Perez."

"Huh?"

"I'm going to be a little busy."

"...yes, I heard. You are in charge of the Lombardy family's business."

Rumors had already spread to Perez, too.

"Yeah, and Perez, you've been busy lately."

"...I?"

Perez tilts his head.

Oh, right.

Monak Top was a secret.1

"There is a conference in which both His Majesty and the Noble Association participate. You don't prepare for that."

"Oh, yeah, that's right."

"So from now on, call me in advance. You're here after a long time, but I don't want to cross paths."

"...Yes, I see."

He's a little sullen and asks.

"Should I call you a week in advance?"

"What? A week?"

"If it's too short... Ten days? Will that be okay?"

Perez's face was very serious, perhaps asking sincerely.

His innocent look made me smirk without realizing it.1

I reached high and stroked Perez's head and said.

"One or two days is enough. I just meant to call me in advance."

"...That's a relief."

Perez murmured and laughed.

Riding a horse to leave Lombardy's mansion, Perez suddenly looked back at the gaze he felt.

Tia was standing in the window of her room waving to Perez.

"Hi, Tia."

Far from being heard, Perez waved his hand together with a greet.

"Let's go."

Perez gently stroked the horse's neck and spurred it.

Duk, duk.

He was quickly running out of the city of Lombardy, with a heavy hoof echoing the ground.

Perez did not slow down, his gaze wary of his surroundings, even as the cold wind hit his face.

It was because he knew that this situation, in which he runs alone on a deserted road, is the best condition to be attacked.

Fortunately, by the time he reached the Capital, all he ran into on the road was a few Top's carriages.

There was no dangerous situation.

However, Perez went around for a long time even after entering the Capital.

And only after confirming that no one was following him did he drive to a secluded inn.

Naturally climbing up to the second-floor room, Perez met two people who were waiting for him.

"Nossier, Rignite."

Rignite, dressed in the clothes of the commoner, and a neat-looking middle-aged man greeted Perez.

"How's work going, Nossier?"

Perez asked in a dry voice that was completely different from when he was with Florentia a little while ago.
