Since I already decided to go now, a knight opened the door of a carriage for us while Calix escorted me. As soon as I got off of the carriage, everyone around us grasped in surprise. Obviously, this is what I've beeen preparing since a while ago. After all, these people are too over acting so I prepared and braceed myself for their epic reaction. Obviously, they didn't expected me to come out froim his carriage as a partner because probably, they are expecting for the duchess. Of course even though I am already used to their stares and attention, I still felt so uncomfortable. After all, unlike usual, their reactions are much intense because after all, these past years, I've been receiving an adoration stares and not hostility
of course, not all of them are staring at me enviously. Some are just staring at me out of surprise. But regardless of that, I didn't bothereed thinking about what they are hinking anymore and justr decided to fix myself and my posture to show th
The succession ceremony ended just like that and just like what I planned, I contacted a news publisher to clear every misunderstanding and include it to their newspaper. That goes well and for days, Calix became busy enough to not to see each other for weeks. Although we didn't get to see for a quite a long time, I know that he himself is aware of everything that had been happening to me because after all, he have a spy on me. And unlike what he said, the one who's always gurading me through out the times is still here even though he case regarding that 'killer' who threatened them is already solved. I believed that this hidden knight who never let me felt that he is here is also observing what I am doing.Two weeks once again passed and bow, it's time for me to leave the enpire for a bit for a vacation. Of course, before I even leave the empire, I asked dad to make it confidential for now. The reason is because I wanted to leave the empire with just the knights and not with
But despite of it, he have a strange feeling towards Lalaine. Maybe because they are father and son that they have the same love for Lalaine. Bow that I am thinkong about it, if only Lalaine grew up with then, she would have felt so happy because they are the kind of people who lived her so much to the point that one of them even became the final villain of the story. But now, since I possesed the body of Lalaine Ledecia, and I am no longer vicious, their death won't hapoen anymore because they doesn't have to avenge me. After all, I won't die this time but rather, will leavd in a good way and convenient way.Of course, it is not really convenient to be an emperor who have so much work to do but still, for mw who worked ro death in my past life on modern days, it is much more convenient and easier. Of course, not because I thought that so, it is an easy job. I just prefer it thsn working a lot of part time jobs in one day just to be able to eat. Also, I will definitely jire a
As the ship slowly land, the mire visible the people and the knights that are waitinf for us outside is. The moment I see that. i immediately decided to go and have a short talk with Calix on his room as well. He have his own room because he is a duke and also, he have a lot of work so they probably want him to hace some little privacy just like me. There, a knight announced my presence which caysed him to opened the door immediately. He must have been surprised by my sudden arrival to his room but yeah, I roamed my eyes around to see how different it is toward my room.All in all, it is also filled with luxurious things byt the inly difference is this room looks like a room made for a guy unlike me who have a brighter color. This one is a little darker but of course, ut lools good. After all, they wouldn't even tmdare to let the duke use this if this is not a pretty room for him to stay. No matter what, the duke position is high enough for people to be afraid at. Even the wh
"Welcome princess Lalaine and duke Finiell" my cousin slightly bowed. As expected, he looks like my uncle who likes to pamper me. Just like what I said, he has a stunning red hair and a really pale skin befitting on his status. His posture and heights are also good. 'Seriously, he has a male lead vibe as well' He has the same height length as Calix so when I was about to talk to him, I had to raise my head just to have an eye contact with him. 'This always happens. He's really tall' But I wonder, why is my cousin not in the male leads category when in fact he is more than qualified to be one. Well, maybe because he is in a villain category. In novels, villain often has an enchanting appearance but a psycho way of thinking. And most of the time, it's them who gets the most attentions. Actually, it is not really him who plotted everything against the empire and the male leads, heroine. He just followed his father. Of cours
Well, that's better. After all, as far as I know based on the novel I have read on my past life, this guy is also quite arrogant. Yes, he is. He have a high pride and doesn't like to be trampled on. Maybe because he's a crown prince but really, it's probably his talents. He kmew very well that he's a someone superior as well. After all, this cousin of mine also grew up being pampered by praises since he was one of the five people who can use aura. And not like their praises are lies anyway. It is true that this guy is as skilled as Calix. Of course, they still have to train one hundred more times to get into dad's level. Well, maybe justfifty more but yeah, dad is still way stronger than them even to Calix. Even though he is a male lead, his strength is yet to manifest since the novel had not yet started. Because based on it, he will get stronger and stronger slowly while facing some heavy crisis with the only heroine of this novel Why did I think so?
While in the carriage, we talked about random things and made each other comfortable and familiar with each other with the excuse of being cousin. He also told me how his father have been looking forward to this day and so he is. 'He's comfortable to talk to' Anyway, I can see his excitement as he said those words. I already know that they really do so of course, that is based on the novel of course. After all, I don't have any reference other than that Anyway, the carriage went on until we finally arrive at the palace. Fortunately, it is not ahaky so I wasn't dizzy when we reached there. 'They really did looked forward to my arrival to the point that they have to prepare this kind of carriage' Somehow, I am touched even though I am not the real Lalaine and the real cousin of the crown prince Their palace is as grand as our own but it is a little smaller. Walls were gold and it has a really good decoration. 'The s
"Welcome my lovely niece, please enjoy your stay in here and comfortably have a hood time" The king which is my uncle laughed along as he say these words. He have a pleasant voice and his expression is good as well. 'He's happy. Well, that's good' It reminded me when I was younger and met him. He has this bubbly personality that can make you feel at ease despite of heavy pressure. Maybe because I am assured that he's a someone who favors Lalaine from the start and he has an unconditional love for her. Unlike my father whom I did everything just to finally gain his favor, the male lead whom I also tried to get along too. Maybe based on thise simple things, I am able to feel reassured by this king's love for his niece The vassals and nobles were surprised by his sudden behavior as soon as they saw how their king acted toward me. Well, that is an expected reaction so I didn't bothered thinking into it that much. Anyway, regardless of their own thoughts, they sti
After leaving that place, I directly went to my room which was assigned to me by the royal family. It was at the main palace, yes at the main palace. Of course, it's more than strange for a guest like me who's not even a king to stay at a main palace since but thinking about how the king loves Lalaine so much, it became natural for me but of course, I still decided to ask who gave this room to me. There, I had a talk with the lady in waiting that uncle assigned to me. I observed them first before opening my mouth as usual. Looking at their luxurious dresses, they seem to come from notable nobles and wealthy families. 'I have a bad feeling about this' and also, seeing their gazes, I can feel that these girls are trying to check me out. Anyway, turned out that it's both the king and the crown prince who decided my room Looking back, Whether I can be controlled like a kitten or I can bite like a tiger.
