Baby Princess Through Status Window
Chapter 20's
The Crown Prince was very similar to the Emperor. When he faced that gaze, Siervian regretted it without even realizing it.
He was on his way back from his swordsmanship training, and sweat had formed on his forehead.
He remembered his cold treatment when they were in front of the Empress last time. If he saw it first, then he would instantly avoid it.
"Hello…"
But there was no choice but to greet him because their eyes met. He intended to leave immediately if his greetings were not returned.
But the answer suddenly came back.
"Thank you."
The Crown Prince's reply was very out of place.
[Damian Erveldote]
Kindness: +100
Atmosphere: Very excited
The only thing he mentioned was greetings, but the answer was strange. Confused, she forgot how desperate she just was and asked him.
"Huh?"
“...I was mean to you back then, so I thought you wouldn't say hello.”
“……”
As expected, what he thought at first was right. He knew that he was evil to her ...!
"I'm sorry."
“This is fine ..”
Did something bad happen to her that day?
Actually, he did not agree with that, but he replied politely. He could only avoid it in the future. They don't have to meet each other anyway.
“Can I meet you later?”
Just as Siervian was about to leave, the Crown Prince immediately asked.
Come to think of it, on the day they met each other in the Empress Palace, there was something strange about her status window. It seemed like he had come to the Empress Palace in a hurry only to find her on purpose.
'What does it mean?'
He feels uncomfortable. Siervian nodded as a way to avoid it for now.
In his previous life, the Crown Prince had never visited him for any personal matters.
"Thank you, Sierra."
However, as he nodded appropriately, he smiled brightly at her.
[Damian Erveldote]
Kindness: +100
Mind: My good sister.
He could not take his eyes off the status window.
He considers her a sister.
"Oh, you're going here, right?"
“Ya.”
[Damian Erveldote]
Kindness: +100
When he replied politely, the Crown Prince smiled again. It surprised him because he could only imagine he had the same stoic expression as their father.
"See you soon."
His older brother, who was suddenly acting strangely, was extremely unrecognizable. So, Siervian nodded quickly and hurried away.
However, she ignored the fact that it would take a while for her to get past her brother because her legs were so short.
[Damian Erveldote]
Mind: Now that the authority over the budget has shifted, everything will be fine.
Thanks to that, he could see another strange status window.
Did something happen between her brother and the Empress?
* * *
As he walked around quietly in a quiet place, his shock seemed to dissipate a little. And that unexpectedly helped him set his mind on what would happen in the future.
'I want to prevent what is going to happen, so I have to be independent once I grow up.'
His brother was made for his position as Crown Prince. She has excellent magic abilities and she is very intelligent— is perfect for the Imperial Family. Moreover, according to the 'Emperor's Pledge, he was the first in the line of succession.
In many ways, the throne was never his. Siervian knows this more than maybe everyone.
"But it doesn't make sense that I'm accused of treason."
Anyway, that's what happened. Just because a small incident is prevented doesn't mean even 'betrayal' will disappear.
Moreover, he did not even know how he was framed as a traitor.
That was why he would lie to change this fate. He would not forget his place, even when he was given a little help now.
'I know. I have to hide that I am a princess and get a job, right?’
At the sudden thought, Siervian thought of a different place with a new perspective.
The Imperial Palace was not a place where just anyone could enter. But on the other hand, it is also a place where all the gear and talent come together. He had to look around here and think carefully about what he would do in the future.
"I'll save as much money as I can."
And just like that, he had forgotten that he should have met the Crown Prince.
Until he visited the Princess' Palace the next day.
* * *
"Who?"
“Your Highness the Crown Prince has come to visit. Now, Princess, three cheers!”
"Three cheers."
Siervian raised both of his hands exactly as Jane had asked. Jane changed her clothes in the name of Ellie, who went to the Emperor's Palace briefly to meet the great treasurer.
Surprised to hear who the visitor was, Siervian was tempted to ask the same question again.
[Jane Millas]
Favorites: 8,900
Mind: You still have to eat more, Our daughter.
It had only been a few days since Jane met Siervian, but her fondness had increased tremendously.
Actually, Siervian can't say anything to her at first, but when she sees that Jane likes her, she realizes that Jane seems to be a loving person. Perhaps because the Princess Palace compensated its employees dearly.
But seriously, is he really here?
“Um.”
“What's up, Princess?”
He knew that they had agreed to meet yesterday, but he had no idea that he intended that he would come the next day. They had never even met like this in their previous lives.
After getting ready, he went to the living room and saw that Damian was really there.
“Ah, Siervia. Excuse me. I knew I should have sent the news earlier..”.
[Damian Erveldote]
Kindness: +100
Mind: You are also very cute today.
When Siervian entered the room, the Crown Prince, who had been sitting in a straight posture, got up. He held the hand of the lady-in-waiting tightly, looking closely as he saw the word 'cute'.
'It was the same look that always looked at me. Very cold.'
Even in his previous life, his elder brother would always stare at Siervian like this.
But when she saw his thoughts, she could easily misunderstand him. Was he like this at the time?
"But why did you come here?"
After all, because he was confused, his body became frightened.
First of all, he had never been able to use the living room in his palace before. As the space itself is unknown, Siervian secretly hides behind Jane's skirt.
“...What I brought might melt.”
[Damian Erveldote]
Mind: It would be great if you liked it. Hex said you liked it.
The Crown Prince was also shocked when he saw that Siervian was looking at him with a wary expression. The more he looked at her with a different expression, the more confused Siervian looked.
"It's a gift."
[Damian Erveldote]
Mind: What should I do. I think you're afraid of me.
However, when Siervian saw what was in Damian's hands, his grip on Jane's clothes loosened.
“I asked them to make it very delicious. …I heard you liked this.”
What he had was a piece of cake. It was also the same cake with cream as the snow on it. Her father had made an ice-sugar fork for her, and she remembered how delicious it was.
Recently, Ellie and the Emperor did not give her a snack that was too sweet. They both thought that they should prioritize nutrition first.
He was also fine with it, as he realized that it was not difficult to walk any further.
"Kue…"
The food they gave her was still very delicious, so it didn't matter to her. That is, until he was faced with this cake.
"I guess I still crave something sweet."
Carefully stepping out from behind Jane's skirt, she still kept her vigilance from afar. However, the one step he took himself brightened the Crown Prince's face.
He placed the cake he had gently on the table in front of the empty chair. Then, he went to the other chair carefully and sat down, as if to no surprise Siervian.
"Here."
As a dignified Imperial Princess, Siervian couldn't possibly have dashed towards the cake just now.
So she asked her brother in the most haughty tone she could muster.
"Will you also give me a job?"
"…okay.OK. I'll make it.”
[Damian Erveldote]
Mind: I'm glad I learned magic for this.
'No, you shouldn't feel appreciated for learning magic because of this. You are the Crown Prince.'
With this in mind, Siervian carefully walked towards the cake. The closer he got, the more he could see the top of the cake as cold as snow. He also recalled how the sweet cream melted into his mouth.
'uh? When do I sit?’
When he regained consciousness, he was already sitting in front of him. A very faint laugh could be heard from close range.
[Jane Millas]
Mind: How funny. I have to tell Ellie to give you more candy.
She felt a little angry at the little laugh, but when she saw Jane's thoughts, she remained silent because she agreed with him.
“...I'm different from Dad, so it will take a long time.”
"okay!"
"But I'll work harder so I can make your fork faster."
“Oke.”
It was strange to see the Crown Prince motivated to learn magic more proficiently for this reason, but Siervian still nodded enthusiastically.
The prince, who was smiling brightly, started to concentrate.
'Gee...'
In contrast to the Emperor, Damian conjured up a cluster of bright lights that floated around the sugar water subtly and for a longer time.
As he felt a cold sensation on his skin gradually, sugar water rose into the air. Although his speed was slower, the Crown Prince did not seem to have any trouble with his spell.
'It's 'so pretty.'
The sugar water gradually attaches to a thin metal rod to form a fork. He thought it was finished now, but suddenly, a light floated above the cake.
“Woow..!”
The sugar water floats on the cake and is formed into a shape this time. There was a cute little house, a white rabbit, and some other animal statues on a snowy field.
They took longer to form than forks, but Siervian could not take his eyes off even for a moment.
“Very cute!”
“Fiuh.. You can also eat those little figurines. But they will be a little cooler.”
"No way!"
It would be silly to put a cute little rabbit into his mouth. When he shook his head in objection, the Crown Prince looked troubled.
“Ah, then it may be difficult for you to eat the cake..”.
[Damian Erveldote]
Kindness: +100
Mind: How can you be so sweet?
She wondered why her brother was acting so strangely, but then there was something more urgent for her now. He couldn't imagine eating a rabbit, but now, he wouldn't be able to eat the cake either.
When he immediately cried, the Crown Prince was very confused.
“M-Sorry. Cake, no, rabbit ... "
[Damian Erveldote]
Mind: Oh no, oh no. What I do. Please don't cry.
Just then, Jane who was standing at the side quietly, approached the two children.
