Chapter 47
[ Aderuan Erveldote ]
Thoughts: Anyway, the security in the garden is a mess, so I’ll have to increase the security measures. Even the magic circle was scattered halfway through. I’ll have to hold the supervisor accountable for this.
As if to answer Siervian’s question, her father recalled a series of suspicious thoughts.
Reading complex sentences in rapid succession made Siervian lose control over her body’s initiative.
“Hmm?”
So she noticed only a few seconds later that her body was holding out a pinky on its own toward her father.
“What is this?”
“Promise!”
“Hmm.”

Favorability: +100
Thoughts: How cute she is. Maybe my Siervy is fond of sephinels because she’s a Mana Fairy.
Carefully eyeing the little finger, the emperor nodded.
He thought that today should be designated as a national holiday.
Fortunately, (?) Siervian had not read this part of her father’s thoughts as she was trying to synchronize with her body again.
‘Even in my previous life too?’
Siervian remembered a lot from her previous life to this day.
She wondered why her father never allowed her to go to the millenary garden.
In her previous life, Siervian had not experienced a situation like this to go to a picnic with her father. So, now she knew what it meant for her to go alone.
‘The millenary garden is dangerous, I wonder if that’s the reason he was so angry when I went alone at night.’
Siervian raised her pinky finger carefully to the Emperor’s and shook it, then right after they made the pinky promise, she saw the Empress’ eyes sharpen for a moment.
Only Siervian, who watched the Empress, saw that grim moment.
‘I’m tired.’
She closed her eyes as if she had no energy.
Until the very last moment that her eyes were open, the Empress’ status window showed only subtracted favorability points until she closed her eyelids.
It would be nice if everyone lived a good life without having to hide their true emotions.
It was very sad.
The summer season had arrived.
It’s actually always winter in the north. The Empire continued to have a spring-like climate under the protection of the magic circle.
So, people separated the seasons on purpose to spend the year in a variety of ways.
There were also changes in the temperature of the magic circle according to the season.
“Me?”
That summer came with an unexpected visitor to the imperial palace.
“Yes, Princess, I think you should prepare right away.”
“Okaay.”
Siervian had heard that Garambell’s delegation was coming. The Imperial Palace was bustling for several days after receiving this news.
She recalled the time when she saw the thoughts of a lot of officials regarding the delegation wherever she went.
‘But why me all of a sudden.’
Although what happened was luck, she was just glad that a lot of people survived.
Siervian thought it had nothing to do with her, but suddenly she received a message from the Emperor’s palace.
“Umm, but the way His Majesty framed this command is a little bit vague, isn’t it?”
“It seems so. Perhaps this means that she needs to dress up nicely.”
However, as Siervian dressed up, the ladies-in-waitings’ concerns deepened.
This was because the Emperor issued his command in the letter in such a strange way.
“Yes, I’m afraid Your Majesty, like this, well, this order… Well.”
[Ellie]
Thoughts: Even so, doesn’t this make His Majesty seem like a ‘fool for his daughter’? Well, the Emperor seems to know our Princess’s cuteness the best, so wouldn’t it be appropriate to say that he’s a fool for his daughter?
Ellie awkwardly smiled as she remembered the weird thought.
“Right, well. As long as Her Highness is pretty, then there’s nothing to worry about, right?
[Jane Millas]
Thoughts: As expected. He’s a fool for his daughter.
Jane also thought the same thing.
At this point, Siervian had to ask.
“What did Papa say?”
She asked, saying a familiar name on her lips.
She was worried about being involved with Garambell.
“‘Well, anyway, it couldn’t be helped, but doll up Siervy and bring her here,’ is what His Majesty said.”
“Okay…”
In the past, I would have bowed my head to the reply.
She would have thought that he was scolding her and telling her to put more effort into it, maybe even blaming her for being less than excellent.
However, it was strange that she could sympathize with the ladies’ words now.
“Let’s hurry.”
Though she had yet to let go of her nervousness, Siervian decided to head to the Emperor’s Palace.
“The Little Moon of the Empire, Her Imperial Princess Siervian is entering.”
The very polite and unfamiliar greeting made Siervian freeze up.
When she arrived at the Emperor’s Palace, the Emperor was sitting on his solemn throne.
And below the throne was Garambell’s delegation, and they had brought with them many rare goods.
‘Come to think of it, how am I supposed to react to this?’
The Emperor and the Empress were called the sun and moon of the Empire. The Crown Prince or Princess who has what it takes to be the next successor to the throne is called the little sun.
Other royal families also called their princesses little moon, but it was a formal greeting that was rarely used.
Of course, Siervian in her previous life knew the proper answer because she only learned proper etiquette in her childhood.
However, this was her second life and she was still only a six-year-old child who hadn’t started her classes yet.
“Siervy, come here. We hope the delegation understands—she hasn’t started her etiquette classes yet.”
“Pa—Father.”
Siervian was relieved by the words, so she quickly ran to her father’s open arms.
She was about to call him ‘Papa’, but after looking at the delegation she changed the name.
It would be a problem if she were to act informally.

“Hmm? You’re already copying your brother. It’s all right, you can call me the way you want, Siervy.”
“…Okaay, Papa.”
However, those efforts easily failed.
“Forgive me for coming to see you now, as you may have heard about what happened during the disaster.”
Siervian was holding onto the Emperor’s leg as he was sitting still, then she looked around the palace.
It seemed like the delegation’s bows were all directed to her.
“Answer them, Siervy.”
“Me…?”
But why?
“I am pleased to hear from Your Majesty’s words that it was by the grace of Her Highness the Princess that Garambell was saved.”
“Uuuum…”
She quickly ran her eyes over everyone in the Emperor’s throne room.
She wanted to know what was going on.
[Paolo Velteman]
Occupation: Grand Chamberlain of the Emperor’s Palace (Lv.89)
Thoughts: Goodness, Your Majesty. You didn’t have to mention Her Highness, but you did just to show off. Hohoho.
Siervian saw a hint in the status window of the grand chamberlain beside her.
It’s clear that Garambell’s delegation sent an envoy in a hurry to thank the Emperor for his kindness.
However, the Emperor seemed to have said again that it was the Princess’s grace.
“Siervy is a little shy. Well, if it’s hard to say, that’s okay.”
The delegation wanted to hear something from the Princess, but the Emperor spoke in her stead as if protecting her.
Thanks to that, she mustered a little courage, and in fact, she asked carefully what she had been concerned about the whole time.
“The people, are they okay now?”
“Ah! Such moving words from the Princess.”
“Your Highness is a blessing of the Empire! How can one be so virtuous!”
She had asked in a small voice, but the delegation answered almost as if they were crying.
Some of the delegations standing behind were even tearful.
…Yes, It must have been hard for them. It was such a big event that their kingdom was nearly destroyed.
[Alderuan Erveldote]
Favorability: +100
Favorability: +100
Thoughts: Hmm. The people in the delegation seem to have good eyes. By the way, Siervy is pretty even without having dressed up for a long time. There are no flaws in her actions and in her heart, mm-hmm.
‘……’
It seemed that the ladies-in-waitings’ interpretation of the Emperor’s strange command was correct.
Siervian smoothed the hem of her modest dress, which she wore for fear of being branded as a luxury princess by other countries.
[Thoughts: Keugh. Those bastards from the other kingdoms, I won’t forget this humiliation.]
[Thoughts: Only this Empire helped take care of the difficulty of Garambell. It would have only been because of the Imperial Highness!]
But the status windows of the delegation were quite strange. They seemed to have no problem with the Empire or the others because most of them were favorable and there were many praising her father from time to time.
But what did the other kingdoms do to Garambell?
“Oh, God of Mana.”
“May God’s blessings be with you now and in the future of Your Majesty the Princess.”
It’s said that in the distant past, there were shrines and religions dedicated to the God of Mana.
However, with the extreme development of magic and mana, most people on the continent no longer sought God.
This was because human achievements had become greater and greater.
Although some people felt the grace of God, it was extremely rare. Still, it must have been hard to cry out for God.
“Well, that’s enough for the delegation. I’m afraid my little Princess has become tired.”
“Yes, the Sun of the Empire.”
It was a long time before my father spoke formally.
Only after Hex, who was standing next to him, coughed like crazy.
[Hex]
Thoughts: Well, this is unusual..
Siervian decided that Hex, whom she hadn’t seen in a while, had ridiculous thoughts.
“What are you talking about?”
“This is absolutely true, Your Majesty.”
The Emperor had given his daughter a special snack from Garambell and then secretly met with the envoy.
He did think that they had brought with them too many goods, but he didn’t think that such a secret would come with them.
“So, is the plague really fabricated?”
“That’s right.”
Emperor Alderuan stroked his chin and recalled a map from his memory.
It was brought by his Captain of the Imperial Guard that had been dispatched to Garambell in a hurry.
The same map where the outbreak site was marked uniformly, it was as if the endemic disease had spread artificially.
The suspicions seemed to have been the truth.
“Did your King say that he could guess the culprit?”
“First of all, the Mosae Kingdom is under suspicion.”
The Mosae Kingdom was close to the Garambell Kingdom, also in terms of blood relations. So when they were guessing at culprits, they could rule them out.
“Other than that, you don’t have a lot of leads, do you?”
“As you know, their hands reached inside the palace…”
The face of the delegate hardened because of the disgraceful matter of him conveying where the security of their kingdom’s royal palace was breached.
Emperor Alderuan squinted at the delegate’s vague words.
Seeing how much he hesitated, the Emperor felt he had more to say.
“And, Your Majesty.”
“Say it.”
“…I believe that even some people within the Empire have been involved in this.”
“How dare you say this!”
Hex, who was a close aide to the Emperor, immediately protested.
The face of Alderuan as he heard the Envoy stiffened even more.
Depending on the point of view, it could be thought that they were now putting the blame on the Empire.
“Garambell will have to take responsibility for what you just said.”
