Baby Princess Through Status Window
Chapter 30's

And that someone was none other than the Emperor.

Only then did Siervian realize who was sitting by his bedside.

“Siervy?”

As soon as he heard his father's voice, he curled up. Fear arose because the dream was still lingering in his mind.

When he tried to sit down reflexively, there was a gentle touch on his shoulder.

"Lay."

In an unbelievable situation, he lost the strength in his body.

Ah, he's back in time.

Then, it was something that had not happened.

'It's cold.'

Although he had realized where he was now, the coldness of the basement still made him tremble.

He squeezed the blanket that enveloped his body tightly. As he curled up, this was the best position so that he could warm himself up.

But suddenly, there was a wisp of light coming from the side.

[Erveldote Alderuan]

Mind: It must be cold.

The air suddenly became warm, as if it had never been cold. His father used magic.

Surprised, he straightened his body and lay on his back. Then, the Emperor arranged his blanket.

A warm touch briefly floated over his forehead, then disappeared.

'Why is Dad here?'

That's a late question.

Siervian was uncomfortable as he just lay down without greeting the Emperor first, so he looked around.

“Servy. What's going on?"

Upon hearing this question, he remembered that he had met the witch Antonio and passed out.

Did he come here after hearing the news that he fainted?

[Erveldote Alderuan]

Mind: No matter how many palace doctors are examined, he says there are no abnormalities on your body.

When he was unconscious, the palace doctor seemed to stop by for a visit.

He remembered how, in his previous life, he would always wake up alone even when he was sick. That time was still very clear to him.

Perhaps it was because he saw a familiar face as he let his guard down.

"Are you sick? Tell me, Servy.”

Maybe that was the reason, but the moment he heard his father mention that nickname, tears welled up in his eyes.

However, his rational mind desperately tried to control his body.

Don't be a troublesome child. You may lose this warmth.

“Sebi is fine.”

“...Please just tell me. What's going on?"

Antonio's face appeared in his mind again.

He is a shameless stranger who visits the dungeon where he is being held. Couple times.

'Hm. You poor thing, Princess. No, you're not even a princess anymore. Why did you do such a terrible thing, huh?’

He knew the best in the world that he didn't do such a thing.

He still did not understand why he did that, why Antonio had to come several times just to mock him.

She was a witch who had never been in contact with him before.

"Siervy, tell me now."

His father's loud tone seemed to be enough to suppress him and immediately acknowledge everything.

[Erveldote Alderuan]

Mind: I feel like I'm going crazy. I have to call the doctor again. Is that magic? There's no way the culprit is a witch who can surpass me.

But his father's inner thoughts kept fluctuating with his attention to him. Instead of a comfortable blanket around him, it is this fact that comforts him.

So the emotions that kept bothering him came out. These were words he could not stop saying.

"Mmh, I-I'm scared."

He was afraid that he would be abandoned one day. And she was afraid she would be framed for something she never did.

But none of that has happened yet.

To admit something like this, he had to explain his secret. So he can only say this now.

"You scared?"

The Emperor's face hardened when he heard his daughter's sad voice.

Her small body tried to hold back her tears, and there was nothing more miserable than this. He carefully touched his forehead that was soaked in sweat.

“Siervy.”

Siervian wanted to keep his hand as long as possible, even if one day this would not happen again.

These warm hands.

“Just rest for now.”

The emperor tried to get up and leave the room.

He forced himself to pretend to be okay.

[Erveldote Alderuan]

Thoughts: Dare.

However, an unusual status window appeared heavily.

Without having a chance to wonder about his father's thoughts as he left the room, Siervian fell asleep again.

* * *

"He still hasn't confessed?"

There was a man tied up and tied up in a dark underground cell.

With a restraint of mana around the bastard, the writhing plump body knelt down.

And there was a little boy in front of him. Still, the witch kept shaking her head.

“Yes, Dad. He's a persistent bastard. ”

On behalf of the Emperor, who had left for a while, the Crown Prince was investigating this man.

The childish appearance he usually showed in front of Siervian had disappeared.

"T-T-It's not fair, Your Honor."

Antonio quickly humbled himself to the Emperor and complained.

The emperor looked at the man's desperate expression, his eyes cold.

He could not control the anger that had appeared before.

"What have you done to my daughter."

Hearing the Emperor's cold tone, Antonio fell into contemplation.

Listening silently at the side, the Crown Prince asked the same question.

He couldn't help it because he was worried about his little sister.

When he heard the news earlier, he was shocked.

Upon hearing that Siervian had fainted in front of this pig-like witch, he instantly became furious.

According to the maid who was with Siervian, she collapsed shortly after meeting the mage. It can't be just a coincidence.

"Dad."

This was an urgent situation, so Damian even called his father differently, in a way that only he did when he was young.

When summoned by the Crown Prince, the Emperor tilted his head to the side. It was as if looking for Antonio's sin on his face.

Then, he spoke again in a heavy voice.

"Siervy said he was scared."

"This bastard ...!"

It was an absurdly strange answer, but after all, the prince was furious.

How dare he scare Siervian?!

As Antonio listened to their conversation, he felt so unfair that he jumped.

'Why should I...!'

It was true that he had the intention to use the princess because she was a very ambitious person.

Initially, he would not even think of approaching the princess.

'** * *.'

Rumor has it that rather than her biological child, the Empress took care of the Imperial Princess, but Antonio noticed that something was wrong.

If he really cared, why would he never ask anything for that child from the magic tower?

Unlike when the Crown Prince was born, the Empress never asked for any artifacts to increase the Princess' mana affinity.

It was common knowledge that some of the witches in the tower gave such items to the nobles while pocketing the payment given to them.

"He's not even her real son."

So Antonio also did not care about the princess, but then he heard another strange rumor.

There were rumors that the Emperor liked the Imperial Princess.

It was forbidden to use magic in front of the Imperial Family. With the young princess being strangely discriminated against, she makes quick calculations and thinks that the princess may never have experienced fancy magic.

"I'll just build a connection to use later."

He also intended to secretly show her some attention-grabbing spells so that she could get closer to him, and with the secret to tying him together, he would definitely be won over.

The children easily opened their hearts to Antonio, and they were easy to use.

But who knew that the princess would faint at that very instant?

"It's driving me crazy."

Even the Emperor misunderstood that he had fainted from magic.

Although he did not attack him, Antonio thought of using magic in front of him, so it was not a fabricated accusation.

'** * *, the daughter of the useless concubine.'

Antonio spilled his frustration in the heart. No one knew, after all, so he would curse her to the end.

"I, I just, I just greeted Your Majesty, Your Majesty."

"Why are you greeting my daughter?"

However, at the Emperor's response, Antonio made an expression full of disbelief.

No, but, isn't it natural to greet the Imperial Family...?

"You're someone irrelevant."

He was even stigmatized just for greeting.

In the presence of a man with insurmountable strength, Antonio could not say anything in return.

Seeing the reaction of this bastard, the Emperor scowled.

It was a simple matter to take care of Antonio right away, but he would probably hurt Siervian again while avoiding people's eyes. And this is what the Emperor wanted to prevent.

"I-It's not fair, sir."

Alderuan, the strongest magician in the entire empire, found no signs of magic, and the palace doctor also said that there were no problems with his daughter's health.

But he saw how Siervian looked so anxious.

"Did the doctor say that it was just a mental shock, Dad?"

"It's so thick."

But Siervian looked very weak and vulnerable at the time to say that it was just a mental shock.

In retrospect, there had never been a time when he did not look so vulnerable, but the Emperor brushed off this thought.

After dealing with this matter, he vowed to get rid of the shaman's palace physician.

At that moment, the Crown Prince looked at Antonio with a cold gaze, then he spoke in a low voice.

"Isn't his face troubled?"

"His face?"

After seeing her again, she did indeed look very much like a pig. Suddenly displeased, the Emperor raised one eyebrow.

“Didn't Siervian seem to care about aesthetics? Obviously because she likes the animal sculpture I made for her.”

“Siervy chased after me, so she definitely has a high aesthetic standard. Of course."

Their strange conversation continued.

The magician who felt that this was all too unfair looked at them, trying to understand what these two strongmen were talking about.

“It is clear that this bastard's face is surprising Siervian.”

“Mm.”

"His maid said that she was very excited to go to the library, but then it became like this when she met this bastard like that."

"It makes sense."

No, it doesn't make any sense at all.

However, the Emperor had the power to get rid of people like Antonio just because he disliked them.

“This is not fun. How dare you show your face to my daughter?”

Knowing that the Emperor could get rid of him easily, Antonio lowered his head while sweating profusely.

He was blinded by ambition. He regretted trying to act familiar in front of the princess.

How dare he try to use the princess to satisfy his greed.

"First, let's go and check on Siervy again."

“Ya, Father.”

The Emperor turned around without hesitation and the Crown Prince followed him.

As the prince said, it was clear that Siervian, who was as gentle as snow, had been traumatized with a face like that bastard frog.

He was a child who always looked surprised when he saw his own face, and he was his father. He thinks that this makes sense.

"But is it really that?"

On the other hand, there was still suspicion left.

Recently, Siervian has been a good boy. There may be more than just being afraid of 'face'.

“Investigate the bastard. Even his work outside the palace.”

On the cold Emperor's orders, the Crown Prince nodded speechlessly.
