His Breeding Obsession - Chapter 57
“Ah, sorry. I’ve been neglecting the deal because I’ve been worried about a lot of things lately.”
“It’s already been 15 years since then. It is not such a short time that neglecting it for a while is not making any progress.”
As Mirania plugged the hole to escape, the Prime Minister fell silent for a moment, then sighed as if he couldn’t help it.
“You seem to know everything.”
Mirania’s golden gleamed coldly.
“Yes. Why did the child you couldn’t find, even a shadow, appear in the salon of an aristocratic family?”
“…”
“You’ll have to explain it well.”
Mirania’s soft flowing hair began to flutter in the wind.
‘Why is there wind in a closed room without an open window’
A frosty voice pierced the ears of the Prime Minister while puzzled.
“Otherwise, you will have to pay the price for daring to deceive me.”
Facing Mirania’s sunken eyes, the Prime Minister’s wrinkled cheekbones trembled greatly.
She has the appearance of a beautiful woman, but whoever she’s dealing with would quickly nod, realizing that she’s no ordinary human being.
“Oh, I see. It’s because there’s someone involved, I can’t talk recklessly.”
The wind that swirled around Mirania slowly subsided.
“Do you mean that even the Emperor is involved?”
“It’s not His Majesty.”
“You’re just trying to dig holes. How long are you going to waste my time?”
When Mirania frowned, the Prime Minister bowed his head, sighing.
“I can’t help it, either. No matter if you are the Great Witch, the head of the humans is the Emperor.”
“…”
“A servant has to hold back when it comes to His Majesty. Don’t forget that the human army is as powerful as this clan’s force is extraordinary.”
It was a mere human warning, but Mirania did not punish him with magic.
The Prime Minister was a powerless old man, but what he represented was, as he said, a human army.
It may not be as terrifying as the Prime Minister threatened, but it could be annoying enough.
“Yes. Don’t you forget the reason the war between continents in the past didn’t end?”
“…”
“Just remember who you are teasing with your tongue.”
As Mirania’s eyes sparkled, the wrinkles between the Prime Minister’s forehead deepened.
“All right. I trust you to act prudently.”
“…”
“The child Mirania said, no, she has become a great lady now.”
Mirania recalled Alice she remembered.
A woman who shone everywhere as if she were being protected by the Gods, even when she was wearing cheap clothes.
‘The heroine of this world.’
It was amazing when I first realized her existence, but now I’ve experienced countless things.
Now, it only mattered where the main character was.
Whether it’s the main character, her being has a profound influence on Mirania’s fate.
“It’s been a while since I found her, as you guessed. But I can’t show her to the Great Witch,” said the Prime Minister.
“…”
“Because the crown prince is protecting her right now.”
“The Crown Prince?”
Mirania frowned at the unexpected words.
Mirania didn’t even know that the Emperor had a son or a daughter, so hearing about the prince was even unfamiliar.
“Why?”
“If you ask me why, I can’t tell you anything because it’s between a young man and a woman.”
Mirania, shuddered at the sight of the Prime Minister clearing his throat.
“Before I found her, she was already acquainted with His Highness the Crown Prince. Speaking of this, I wondered if there might be a conflict between Lady Mirania and His Highness the Crown Prince, that’s why I couldn’t tell you in words due to my old age.”
While listening to the Prime Minister, Mirania couldn’t come to her senses, still dumbfounded.
An affair between a young man and a woman?
“So you’re saying that Alice and the Crown Prince are dating? Are they aiming for breeding?”
“Great Witch, no matter how much you convey the Crown Prince, the word breeding is a bit…”
I corrected myself as I saw the shocked face of the Prime Minister.
“I mean, were they in a serious relationship?”
Seeing her rather impatient attitude, the Prime Minister blinked at her cautious words.
“As I said, it’s not easy to know exactly what’s going on between a young man and a woman. It’s His Majesty’s relations, so please understand that it’s not easy to say anything regarding this matter.”
In any case, it seems that the fact that they are meeting should be regarded as a fact.
‘Alice was dating? Is she in love?’
‘… And with another man?’
Not with Grecan or Leverianz, but with another man?
The astonished Mirania glanced beside her without realizing it.
Conscious of her gaze, Grecan tilted his head.
“Why?”
As soon as she saw him, Grecan, which seemed bothered just being in this position, brightened slightly.
‘If I think about my previous life, it’s impossible.’
Mirania was confused because she knew the future.
Grecan and Leverianz form a very close relationship with Alice. That was the future.
‘Is it because they met too late?’
The story takes a completely different turn when Alice finds another love.
Because Grecan and Leverianz won’t even try to covet my hearts for Alice.
Mirania, who was thinking of the future, shook her head.
‘Until it’s certain, I can’t jump to conclusions about anything.’
However, somehow, I felt uncomfortable.
From the time she regressed ten times and decided to raise the male protagonists, the direction of her life this time seemed to be moving in a rather strange direction.
“How can I meet Alice?”
“It’s not easy.”
The Prime Minister immediately expressed disapproval.
“She is a beautiful lady because His Highness is very wary of strangers. As you may know, human men have a habit of not letting their lover walk around recklessly.”
“So that’s why I’m asking you how.”
Mirania spoke coldly, “If it’s difficult, make a way. If it is impossible, make it possible.”
“There is no need to arouse suspicion from His Highness the Crown Prince, so a more natural method will be needed. I’m just asking in case…”
The Prime Minister hesitated and looked at Mirania’s countenance.
“Why do you want to see her?”
“I was the one who asked to find Alice, who was a child. What are you suspecting?”
“Oh, sorry. It’s because Miss Alice is so beautiful and her abilities are so outstanding, so many people have approached her with nefarious intentions.”
Mirania’s anger softened when the Prime Minister apologized quickly.
“There is only one reason why I want to find her.”
“…”
“Alice has been suffering from a long-term illness. I am trying to cure that disease.”
The moment she said those words, the air changed. Mirania, who was sensitive to the flow of air, immediately recognized that it was because of the Prime Minister.
When our eyes met, the Prime Minister looked calm again.
‘Something’s not right. You’re hiding something from me.’
Mirania’s eyes narrowed with doubt.
“… Is that so. She must have been ill.”
After a few seconds of silence, the Prime Minister opened her and continued, “The way to meet Alice naturally is through an official event. If it’s there, she would be able to talk for a while without the need to ask for a private meeting.”
“That’s not bad.”
“Yes. I’ll prepare an invitation when there’s a suitable seat. I will guarantee your status in my name, so please act carefully. Furthermore, I ask for your cooperation so that I can safely pay for my mistake this time.”
‘That’s good enough.’
Mirania got up from her seat, as there seemed to be nothing more to hear from the Prime Minister.
“I will arrange separate accommodation in the capital. Please be guided by the attendant.”
Seeing no reason to refuse, Mirania nodded lightly.
No matter how the butler conveyed the words, the Prime Minister’s attendant was an ordinary human.
The attendant disappeared after guiding Mirania and the others to the lodging.
The party, who got off the carriage, was able to identify a neat mansion.
As they came by carriage, the attendant explained that it was one of the mansions the Prime Minister had for his guests.
Mirania, Grecan, and Malandor each chose the room they wanted.
‘Constructing a building like this must be one of the human talents.’
Looking around the neat and comfortable interior of the room, Mirania put down her luggage.
Bang!
The door opened somewhat hard. Grecan, frowned as if he had not known it would make such a loud noise, stood before the door.
“You came in just in time. I’m going out now, will you follow me?”
At Mirania’s words, Grecan raised an eyebrow.
“You’re leaving?”
“I want to find out what happened. It would be foolish to take the Prime Minister’s words at face value.”
Mirania, looking at herself, thinking if what she was wearing was a strange outfit to walk around the capital streets, noticed that Grecan didn’t respond.
Glancing behind, he was looking at Mirania in the distance.
“What are you doing standing there?”
“Who is Alice?”
Grecan’s brows furrowed. Mirania gulped and swallowed, looking at the same expression of wonder and displeasure.
