Ellie, who was comforting the princess, prepared to head out immediately.
Siervian felt anxious, and he rushed into the living room, frustrated that his little body would not move as fast as his heart beat.
"I greet Your Majesty, the Princess."
At first, it was impolite to request an audience with a princess in a hurry. But seeing Hex's urgent expression, he could not find any spare time for politeness.
'What's going on?'
It's been two weeks since Siervian asked his father to help Garambell in his private garden. Hurricane season is near.
“Your Majesty, I am here because I have something urgent to tell you. Please forgive me for being disrespectful.”
Siervian nodded gracefully, stating that it was fine. And he tries to relax. If there really is something wrong, the knights will come, not the chancellor. Has he not experienced it?
"Let's calm down now."
Hex felt the urge to grip his heart when he saw Siervian's awkward effort with an elegant nod, but he soon came to his senses.
[ The hex ]
Mind: Oh my goodness. The princess did not seem to be feeling well.
Reading the status window, Siervian felt more relaxed thanks to this. He seems to be worried about her.
"Daughter, please listen, but don't be too surprised."
“Oke.”
rush to send supplies with the intention of sending them before the hurricane season comes. It was true that this increased the cost even more, but the Empire was actively sending this support.
The supply had arrived just in time when an epidemic was sweeping through Garambell.
"His Majesty's decision saved the west coast."
Hex says that they can help on time because of its urgency.
Of all things, the epidemic has spread beyond Garambell, as it is a major transportation hub in the western region. The medicinal herbs arrived at the right moment, so the impact was much greater.
"I…?"
Siervian widened his eyes, thinking that it was lucky that nothing bad had happened since he vaguely recalled the incident.
Hex's words seeped directly into his heart like little seeds sprouting.
"I save people."
Of course, he knew that all he did was ask for a small request. But since he knew the future, he clearly knew what would happen without his small actions.
‘It feels weird...!’
It made her think that she was doing something worthwhile for the first time in her life.
Heart's full. That's very strange. This feeling made his heart swell, but it was a little frightening.
For a moment, Siervian enjoyed this strange excitement.
"The Emperor's Majesty has arrived."
At that moment, the maid outside the living room announced an unexpected visit.
He would thank Hex for the good news, but he quickly looked towards the door.
[ The hex ]
Mind: His Majesty told me to hurry up and tell the princess, but why did you end up coming alone?
Siervain was surprised by the sudden visit, but he was even more curious after reading Hex's mind. The Rector came to deliver this news because it was an order from his father.
“Siervy.”

Today, his father's favorite stands out.
“Your Majesty! Aaaaak!”
He got up quickly to greet her, but his legs twisted slightly.
Even before he could salute politely, his father had already approached him. At the sight of his urgent move, Siervian began to worry if something happened in Garambell.
"I heard you haven't eaten well, Siervy."
The Emperor, who raised his surprisingly small body, placed his daughter in a chair.
He was in the middle of a meeting when he heard this shocking news, and it felt like all mana had been sucked from him. That was why, as he knelt down, the expression on his face as he looked at his daughter was serious.
[Erveldote Alderuan]
Mind: I come as soon as I hear. Is this serious? You don't look so good.
Sierra could not hide his confused expression.
What did he just say?
He wondered if he had actually run after hearing the news that he had not eaten much.
Is he really?
"I'll call a doctor for you."
The emperor turned around, and he would immediately give an order.
But Siervian reflexively reached out to his sleeve and gripped him tightly with both hands.
"What's wrong?"
“It wasn't twue. I'm not swick.”
He really didn't, so even if he called the doctor, it would be useless.
He didn't want such a situation.
"If you're not sick, why don't you eat well?"
The emperor, this clumsy father, spoke in a more appropriate tone for interrogation.
Hex, who was standing beside her, started to feel uneasy.
She was afraid the princess would not know, that was why she was worried.
[Erveldote Alderuan]
Without knowing the Hex's loyalty, the Emperor frowned and glared at the chancellor next to him.
There was no way for him to know his thoughts, so Hex could only retreat, shocked.
Siervian, who was reading everything, pulled on his father's sleeve. He intended to attract his attention so that he would not pursue the chancellor.
“Jwust... I have no appetite...”.
There are days like that.
Looking back, there were days when he was so hungry after only drinking black tea all day. But sometimes, there were also days when he could arrange it with just a cup.
Siervian thought that this was normal because of his memory of those days.
He regretted that he had made everyone worry.
“True, your appetite... can be lost too, right.”.
[Erveldote Alderuan]
Mind: It is impossible. My daughter is not like that. Even if you have a stomachache, at least you keep eating soup well. Menic.
'Dad 'Dad. Did I just show you how well I eat?’
It seems hard to deny his father's strong belief that he will never have a day when he has no appetite.
It was something that made him reflect on his past actions, whether he was too greedy.
"There's no time for this."
Shaking his head, Siervian put away those scattered thoughts.
This is a busy time where there should be preparation to be made for hurricane season.
He had not learned anything about state affairs, but he could at least remember that everyone was busy during this time.
That's why he shouldn't hold back his father for trivial matters like his food problems.
“Serbia is fine. Your Majesty is busy so I don't want to disturb you ... "
“……”
He also wanted to say that in the future, he would tell the waiter not to send any more disturbing reports.
However, it was still difficult for him to speak clearly. He tried to say something similar to that, but as expected, the word choice was still wrong.
Seeing his father's hardened expression was terrifying.
"Your highness…"
“Yes, Princess..”.
For some reason, there is a choir****** around it. Sierra's heart fell again. He can't believe he's making a mistake here anymore.
He immediately looked around, trying to look at their status window. That's how he can prepare himself.
Yet somehow, the normally so bright window, interrupting his vision from time to time, became silent.
That's frightening.
'What do I do…?'
He released the hand that reflexively held his father. Then, she hugged the doll she had been carrying all this time.
Now, his heart felt peaceful.
“Siervia.”
“Ya..”
He still felt heavy, but he replied calmly. She was glad she wasn't crying.
It would only be more troublesome for his father, which would be contrary to what he had just said.
“You don't bother me. I'm not finding you troublesome at all. Why did you say that?”
At that moment, his father's firm tone reached Siervian.
“Sebi... no... sucks...?”.
"That's fine. Never does. That's why you can tell me. Why don't you eat well?"
Everyone around them nodded desperately in line with the Emperor's plea.
It was as if they all really wanted to know the reason.
'A.'
Only then did his realization reach the Sierra.
The fact that he does not eat well is very important to his father and others.
Confused by the situation, he tried to understand. Others may also think that he is important.
[Erveldote Alderuan]
Thoughts: Maybe the women who are waiting are playing you again. I need to look into it.
However, while Siervian was suffering from this, the Emperor's dangerous thoughts flashed before him.
If this continues, Ellie and the others will be in danger.
Unlike before, they were all good people who took good care of him. He couldn't let his father misunderstand.
"T-To be the best ..."
"Yes what is it?"
Heart's pounding.
His father really didn't find it annoying.
And today, Hex says that he saved a lot of people.
These two things filled his mind for a while, comforting him.
"A little, just a little."
She hugged her doll and gripped her father's sleeve— very tightly with both hands.
Since he saved so many people, couldn't he be slightly pampered today?
“Sebi.... do not want to eat alone..”.
