“Your Majesty, could you please tell me who this “he” is who has been exploring our farm?”

His Highness is thinking with his eyebrows furrowed.

“The person His Highness the Crown Prince finds so troublesome is someone from another country, isn’t he? Your ancestors are from the Kingdom of Balwala in the east. In terms of countries bordering our country, the Kingdom of Farrill in the north is the only one who would be sneaky enough to spy on us and whom His Highness would need to pay attention to.”

“…Actually, His Highness Herrud, the fourth prince of the Kingdom of Farrill, is currently residing in the royal palace. He came to our country recently under the guise of studying abroad.”

I understood what [troublesome] meant.

“Your Highness, this Prince Farrill was here, wasn’t he? How long will he be here?”

“I’m not sure. He’s staying in the royal palace at the king’s request.”

If it’s only for a short time, I can flee temporarily and let the prince enjoy his stay here. But if it’s for an extended period of time, I’m in big trouble. All of the mulberry trees on the farm will die if I am gone for an extended period of time. And a lot of people I could save would perish while I had to restart the farm from scratch.

Instead of fleeing now, it would be a good idea to rely on the royal family’s power.

“Your Highness, I have a general idea of what the Kingdom of Farrill is like. I can imagine what he was looking for as well. He’s probably unaware of the cloth if he’s walking around the farm. Will you promise to protect not only me but everyone on the farm if I tell His Highness everything, including the cloth?”

His Highness Mark appeared perplexed by my sudden condition.

“You are legal residents of this country. You also have this cloth that heals illness and injury. You wouldn’t give it to someone else, would you?”

“Do you swear?”

“Naturally, I do. In the name of my parents, I swear.”

I opened my mouth firmly.

“Your Highness, what he was probably looking for was the source of rain.”

“Alesia!”

“Stop!”

My father and Ethan both yelled.

To reassure them, I speak quietly. “It’s fine.”

“We’ve been doing well for fourteen years, Oto-san. But I knew this day would come. It seemed impossible to keep it a secret for the rest of my life. The Farrill Kingdom is a terrible place. If we do not rely on His Highness now, we may be attacked and taken to the Kingdom of Farrill one day.”

My father is shocked by the unexpected news.

“Oto-san, I believe the time has come to rely on the royal family’s assistance rather than run and hide from them.”

“Alesia, will you please explain what is going on?”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

I gave my parents and Ethan’s family a friendly smile.

“I need to have a talk with His Highness so that he can protect me, everyone, and the farm. I want you all to listen to me.”

—○█○—

“I understand. No… I don’t understand all of this yet. I’ve been thinking about the rain for a long time. I’ve always been curious about the connection between you and the rain. Maybe the desert farm is also yours.”

I already knew he was on to us.

“Knowing your personality, I didn’t dare tell anyone about this location. I thought it would be a shame if you escaped again like you did at the desert farm.”

“So that’s what happened.”

“I believe in the silk cloth’s power because I’ve witnessed it twice. But I had no idea you had been studying the effects of silk for three years. No—it’s been raining since Alesia was born. It’s been fourteen years. You guys are incredible.”

“Your Highness, please keep Alesia safe.”

My father bowed down. Ojisan and Oba-san, my mother, Ethan, also bowed.

“Alesia will be safe with us—I will not let Farrill take her away from us. We will find a way to safeguard this farm. Just give me some time to arrange everything”

He said this while looking at Meir, who was lying down.

“I’m not sure how to explain to Meir that he wasn’t hurt when the cougar knocked him down…”

“Fortunately, Your Highness, there is no moonlight tonight. Let’s just say Meir-san is mistaken. That’s all. I changed his clothes because “he peed himself.”

Nathan-ojisan’s suggestion was odd, but it seemed to be the only option.

His Highness jolted Meir-san awake and approached Joachim-san, who was stationed outside the door.

“Haha, well, we’ve caused trouble for the people on the farm,” he said with a cheerful laugh.

“Your Majesty! How is Meir doing?

“Meir is fine. It’s just that Meir peed his pants. I just asked the farmers to change his clothes.”

“What? He’s not hurt?”

Joachim-san is taken aback.

“No, he is not hurt. It was dark, and he had made a complete mess.”

His Highness had changed his jacket and shirt into my father’s clothes after getting blood on his hands while assisting Meir-san, and Meir-san, who was wearing only Nathan-ojisan pants underneath, came out from behind his Highness with an “I’m so sorry!”

” A cougar jumped on me and pushed me down, but that’s all I guess… I really thought there was a lot of blood and pain, but I guess I was wrong. I apologize for causing such a commotion.”

Meir-san rolled up his pants to show Joachim-san.

I’m sorry for Meir-san, but we all told him he peed himself. He had no choice but to be convinced by the sight of his leg, which was neither lacerated nor bleeding.

Joachim-san laughed heartily.

“Hahaha! What the hell, Meir, I thought a cougar had done it to you, Meir!”

His Highness said, “True, there was a cougar. It would have left footprints. The farm manager went outside to summon the guards. The queen’s favorite fruits come from this farm. If she knows a cougar is nearby and they don’t have a guard, something will go wrong.”

Nathan-ojisan called out, and the guards came.

His Highness said to me, “I’ll call you later,” and then left.

Later, on the way home, his highness told us, with a wry smile, “I felt really sorry for Meir.”

Meir-san complained of a stomach ache on their way home, and Joachim-san chastised him, saying, “Enough! You made His Highness clean up your mess, and now you’re sick to your stomach?!” He was so embarrassed that Joachim-san scolded him and apologized profusely.
