Baby Princess Through the Status Window - Chapter 35

────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Chapter 35

That day came just as the storm season was in full swing. On Siervian’s birthday, the most intense and severe blizzard arrived.

[ Siervian Erveldote (6 y.o.) ]
Body and soul synchronization · · · 8%
Current actions are in line with the body.
:◈:

When she looked into a mirror this morning, she saw a small change in her status window. Siervian didn’t know that it would change right away on the day of her birth itself, so she looked at the window with wonder.

But she soon saw the synchronization percentage and just sighed. The number went up very minimally. At this rate, it looked like she wouldn’t be in sync with this body until she was very, very old.

“Princess, shall we go?”

“Okayy.”

She was all dressed up, and so Ellie asked kindly.

Until then, Siervian couldn’t imagine what her birthday party would look like.

‘How did this happen!’

As they approached the most luxurious place in the Imperial Palace, the White Hall, Siervian trembled with anxiety.

She was worried that they might have taken the wrong turn, but Ellie just smiled knowingly.

“The Princess’ birthday celebration will be held for three days.”

“Thwee… days?”

With relentlessly shaking eyes, Siervian asked in disbelief.

Originally, it was customary for any member of the imperial family to celebrate their birthday for over three days. However, Siervian was unfamiliar with what’s happening now because she had rarely ever done any such custom.

As the carriage arrived, she saw that many people had already gathered.

“Siervian.”

[ Alderuan Erveldote ]
Favorability: +100
Thoughts: It’s the day that such a pretty child came to this world. We should celebrate this day splendidly. Of course.

In particular, the star of the party would be the last to arrive at the imperial family member’s banquet.

Thanks to this, the emperor, the crown prince and the empress were already gathered at the banquet hall.

And filling the hall were high-ranking nobles.

‘Ahh, what do I do.’

Many nobles were gathered with the intention to meet the figure amidst all the raging rumors, the imperial princess.

Actually, this party was a big opportunity for them because not everyone could meet the young princess.

‘Why is it large scale. I shouldn’t be extravagant.’

At one glance, it’s clear that the banquet hall was magnificent and opulently decorated.

As soon as she arrived, Siervian froze at once when she saw the flashy place.

The sight made her remember all the criticism she heard in the past. She couldn’t get used to the way people looked at her.

“Your Majwesty.”

Like a broken magic golem, her joints creaked as she curtsied.

And when her leg slipped, she became even more teary. She was going to be criticized for not having studied etiquette properly.

“Hiccup!”

At that moment, a translucent sphere appeared in front of her.

“Siervy.”

“Your Majwesty…”

“Now, if it’s like this, the others won’t see you, right?”

Her father had hidden her with magic.

When she looked up at him with a puzzled face, she saw a somewhat awkward expression.

[ Alderuan Erveldote ]
Favorability: +100
Thoughts: Goodness, you’re really shy. You’re a smart child, so there must be a reason why you’re feeling very shy. It’s because not everyone’s allowed to see this cute side of yours.

When her surroundings had been blocked, her mind surprisingly became calm.

The emperor continued to use his magic to move her and lifted her carefully.

“I think this is a great start to the party. Siervian will first spend time in the garden.”

That didn’t sound like a great start at all, but his words were comforting.

Unknowingly, Siervian nuzzled deeper in her father’s arms and swallowed the tears that threatened to come out.

The White Hall’s garden was, just like the emperor’s private garden, another renowned place in the palace.

It had a fountain with a permanent spell, making it possible for water to move brilliantly and freely in the air. There were also fairy sculptures nearby, and as their wings fluttered, they looked almost alive.

“Uwah…”

Obviously entranced, Siervian was mesmerized by the dream-like scenery.

In her previous life, she came here mostly during the night. It was her first time coming to the garden with the sun out like this.

“Mm.”

The emperor casually pushed a bowl of macarons in front of Siervian.

But because she was watching the fountain’s water soar to the sky and fall like lightning, she didn’t see this.

“Pwetty…”

The water in the fountain had split into such narrow streams that it couldn’t be seen as it touched the ground. The droplets scattered on the flower petals there.

The fountain show changed again so that the water wouldn’t drop to the same location.

With her hands clasped together, Siervian looked very happy while looking around the garden.

The emperor watched her like this for a while, then gestured to a servant who was standing near the entrance of the garden.

“People will start coming in. Don’t be surprised.”

“Yees.”

Siervian recalled her ugly past again. She became nervous as she tried to sit upright.

“Princess.”

“Your Majwesty the Empwess.”

“You’re pretty today, too.”

The empress approached her first and, hearing her words, Siervian felt anxious.

[ Cybelle Erveldote ]
Favorability: -9,050

The empress’ favorability fell even more, even as she praised Siervian kindly just now.

“Thank you.”

Siervian managed to curtsy politely and the empress then went to her place next to the emperor and sat down.

A group of people slowly entered the garden this time, but at this, Siervian blinked.

There were so many more people earlier, but it’s strange.

“Are you still scared, Siervy?”

“Noo, I’m fwine.”

To make up for the mistake, Siervian said this bravely.

Truthfully, the atmosphere had become more comfortable. This was because she was meeting only a few people and she was distracted by the garden.

[ Alderuan Erveldote ]
Favorability: +100
Thoughts: Hm. You’re brave in any situation. That’s my daughter. I’m so proud of you.

If it was up to the emperor, he would have wanted to hold an even bigger and more splendid banquet for his daughter. However, he was also just more concerned for the child who was so easily scared that even the knights still frightened her.

“Everyone will greet you gradually. Eat some snacks.”

“Okaay!”

The nobles in the hall a while ago were sifted through before they were invited in here.

They were now waiting for their turn at the banquet hall because the emperor had limited the number of people who could enter this garden.

They eagerly waited for their turn because they were curious about the princess who was like a fairy as she disappeared after each greeting.

“He’s the lord of the magic tower,” Alderuan said to Siervian.

Since the princess was still young, it was possible for greetings to be like this.

Naturally, this birthday focused on preparing the best gift for Siervian on the last day of the party.

“I greet the two suns of the Empire.”

“Mm.”

“Welcome, Magic Tower Lord.”

He was an old gentleman who had gray hair and he was dressed neatly in his mage’s robe.

Siervian’s curious gaze also turned to him.

[ Turana Ellison ]
Occupation: Lord of the Magic Tower (Lv.95)
Favorability: 20,500
Mood: Exceedingly surprised
Thoughts: Hoo, Karmen was right.

The wrinkled eyes of the lord of the magic tower held astonishment.

It’s been a while since Siervian saw Karmen, so looked around furtively if he was there, but he didn’t come with the lord.

“It’s nice to meet you, Your Highness.”

“Hello…”

When Siervian greeted him cautiously, the lord of the magic tower laughed loudly.

[ Turana Ellison ]
Favorability: +80

It was strange that his favorability rose at a higher rate than most people.

As she wondered if Karmen had put out a good word for her, she fidgeted with her hands.

“Happy birthday. I’m still lacking, but I am the Lord of the Magic Tower, Your Highness.”

In any case, Siervian thanked him gracefully because there’s nothing good about looking bad towards a person who already favored her.

[ Favorability: +20 ] [ Favorability: +30 ] [ Favorability: +20 ] [ Favorability: +50 ] [ Favorability: +20 ]

Then suddenly, a barrage of windows appeared nearby.

The owner of those windows thought that the child was so cute as she was dressed like a fairy but imitated an adult gracefully. Not knowing this, Siervian blinked without understanding.

“Just as I heard, Your Highness is so very cute!”

“Mm.”

“Hoho. That must have been thanks.¹”

Her father was acting as he usually did.

However, Siervian was a little scared of the empress next to him. She was smiling kindly as if she was the one who had been praised.

“……”

[ Cybelle Erveldote ]
Thoughts: Why does the tower lord already know the princess…

Especially since Siervian could see the turmoil in her thoughts.

Chills ran up her spine for no reason, and so Siervian grabbed her father’s collar with one hand.

“She’s a little shy. Don’t take it personally.”

“I believe so. At the banquet hall, the nobles are so curious that they’re going crazy, hohoho.”

The lord of the magic tower was someone who laughed a lot.

[ Turana Ellison ]
Thoughts: I should hurry and go brag about how cute the Princess is. Those aristocrats’ facial expressions will be worth seeing.

Siervian quickly felt more comfortable with the tower lord because his thoughts weren’t very different from his actions. Though she was curious about why Karmen referred to him as ‘old man’.

“Your Majesty, did you know?”

“What is it?”

“That the Princess has a strong scent of mana.”

“Scent of mana?”

Ah, that’s why as soon as the tower lord came, he thought, ‘Karmen was right’.

Siervian’s eyes widened, and at this, the corners of the tower lord’s lips tugged up to a warm smile. This was because he thought that Siervian, just like his granddaughter, looked so lovely.

‘What Karmen said… It was true?’

Her heart suddenly started beating loudly. Did she really have talent in magic?

Suddenly, she thought that her father might know this fact because he was also an excellent mage.

But next to her, her father looked at her in a hurry while a status window popped up.

[ Alderuan Erveldote ]
Thoughts: Of course, my Siervian resembles me and has a strong mana scent. She’ll be an amazing mage in the future.

After reading this, Siervian looked at her father’s expressionless face. Her eyes were shaking.

Her father already knew.

But why didn’t he make her study magic early in her previous life?

——

¹ over here, the emperor only said ‘Mm.’ but the lord of the magic tower just interpreted that as ‘thanks’ xD
