Baby Princess Through Status Window
Chapter 42's
Hearing Siervian's urgent explosion, Marco stopped his steps.
Kneeling politely, he looked at the princess and asked reflexively.
"Your highness. You mean, something like money.”.
"Yes. The money!"
Marco asked reflexively out of habit, but in fact, he did not expect much.
[Marco William]
Mind: You are young, so you may not even understand the concept of money…
This was true, and at this moment, Siervian grimaced.
But to others, she looks like a sweet sulk.
“Ehem, um. I beg you, Your Majesty, but there must be a better teacher out there for the Princess.”
[Marco William]
Favorites: +30
Mind: If it's 5 million, then I might give it time to think about it, but. Eyy, it's impossible. Let's not bring it up.
Fortunately for Siervian, a hint appeared in his status window.
Therehewas. He can raise the right number for Marco!
"No! Sebi can really give you money!”
"…Is that so?"
Seeing Marco's face again tangled, Siervian became impatient.
He quickly raised his cute fingers and spread them wide.
It would be better if he gave her double, wouldn't it?
"So ... So many."
Marco's eyes widened as he looked towards Siervian, who was brandishing his ten fingers.
Seeing his reaction, he shouted out resolutely.
"Ten million!"
Marco was silent for a moment, even at Siervian's desperate cry. This made him hesitate for a moment, wondering if that was enough.
Later then.
[Marco William]
Favorability: 10,500 (new!)
The status window shone brilliantly. Siervian tilted his head to the side as this was something he had never seen before.
His liking had only been 5,030 before, which meant it was only a marginal favor for him, but then it had nearly doubled in that instant.
"I dedicate my true loyalty to you, Your Majesty."
At that moment, accompanied by the twinkling light around him, Marco knelt more courteously than before.
“Umm..”
Even though he was a child, Siervian was part of the imperial family, so it was natural for him to be at the top of this hierarchical society.
Even so, Marco thought many times. The best liege is the liege who will take care of him for a lot of money.
"Then, what was His Majesty's first commandment?"
Marco, who had been determined to escape earlier, now showed incredible spirit.
That was why Siervian could only nod back with a puzzled face.
After all, much easier than he thought, he found someone who would teach him about money.

The social season is now going well.
Siervian hates the season this year, but there's still one thing he's looking forward to.
The spring picnic.
“What's on your mind, Princess?”
Jane asked him, while carefully combing the boy's black hair.
"Not much."
With the princess immersed in her thoughts like this, her cheeks looked even more swollen than before.
When Jane first entered the Princess Palace, the first thing she wanted to do was feed the princess ten times a day.
"What are you going to do today?"
"Yes."
Perhaps he had an interesting plan, but Siervian muttered as he thought about it.
The more people he actively communicates with, the more Siervian speaks.
His pronunciation also became clearer as the words he used to express his intentions also became more detailed.
"I want to go to the spring picnic."
And as she plots things out with a much clearer thought process than Jane realizes, Siervian is deep in her thoughts.
The thousand-year-old garden, surrounded by magic circles, had always been the number one place everyone in the empire wanted to visit during the spring. Spring picnics are usually held there.
'I want to see the sephinel flower...'
The sephinel flower is a legendary flower that only blooms once every millennium, but is easily found in the garden of a thousand years.
It was one of the first emperor's achievements that the existence of sephinel flowers became natural. Since time is stopped in the garden of a thousand years for the flowers, any flower that should wither within a week can bloom forever there.
Since then, gardens with sephinel flowers began to be called 'millennial gardens'.
"I want to watch it closely."
The sephinel flower looks like a long purple lily, and has a mysterious appearance.
In addition, the reason why the first emperors stopped time inside the garden was one of the common themes of imperial poetry and ballads.
It is said that the garden of a thousand years was the first emperor's gift to his empress, who liked the sephinel flower the most.
'What an incredible magic spell.'
The park has a legend for lovers, but it is also very famous among witches for its temporal stasis spells.
It is amazing that it is a place where spring can be experienced, because from the beginning, spring is unlikely to come north.
'Sephinel was originally just a legendary flower, but it became a symbol of romance because of that story ...'
Of course, the story was not very important to Siervian because he liked the sephinel flower itself.
'Will it open this year?'
The thousand-year-old garden was under the ownership of the imperial family, and was open to the public only during the social season.
The park was also an effective way to show off the dignity of the imperial family while using it as a meeting place of the upper class society.
However, in his previous life, Siervian had never 'officially' paid a visit to the thousand-year-old park.
'Now that I think about it, I think Father stopped allowing the nobles to come when I was about twelve.'
Given this strange fact, Siervian's expression darkened.
Siervian had not asked for many things in his previous life, but one thing he emphasized many times was seeing a thousand year garden.
Of course, the emperor never allowed it.
'Will it be a little different this time?'
Unlike when he was twelve years old before, the park had not been closed for some mysterious reason.
So, maybe he could at least try asking his father this time.
* * *
'Ah, but, I shouldn't have come here as soon as I thought of doing it.'
Every time Siervian let his guard down even for a moment, his child-like instincts would explode.
He became much more comfortable talking and moving than before, but this impulsivity would still appear from time to time.
“What's up, Princess?”
"Nnh, I'm afraid, Your Majesty will be angry."
"Geez, what makes you think that's gonna happen?"
[Eylie]
Thought: Oh my God, our daughter. Your Majesty will never be angry with you.
As soon as Siervian finished dressing up, she came to the Emperor Palace. It was completely out of his control.
It was rude of him to come see his father without notice.
He should have sent a letter first and asked permission to visit first.
"Your majesty!"
It had been a long time since they had met, but the grand treasurer cheerfully rushed to his side as soon as he saw her.
So Siervian could not even return after he regained consciousness and had to look towards him slowly.
“I will tell Your Majesty soon. Miss who is waiting, will you guide His Majesty inside?
"Yes sir."
Siervian was thinking of a way out of this, but surprisingly, the great treasurer responded enthusiastically as if he had been waiting for this opportunity.
It was a bit unexpected, but Siervian only nodded when he offered to ask for his own permission.
Afterwards, Ellie brought Siervian to the beautiful living room in the Emperor's Palace.
"Is this really okay?"
Although after Siervian read what Ellie was thinking in her status window, she decided to believe it.
If it was going to be difficult for his father to meet him now, he would at least tell him to come back later.
"Your highness. I have received His Majesty's permission. ”
"okay!"
A little time passed before the grand treasurer returned.
Seeing the sweat forming on his forehead, Siervian wondered if he had come from a faraway place.
"Please get through here."
The grand housekeeper walked forward to guide him along the way.
The young Siervian had never been around this part of the palace before.
But a grown Siervian knows exactly where this road leads.
'Huh…? This way?'
Although he was confused, he knew this path quite well.
"Your Majesty, Her Imperial Princess Royal Highness has arrived."
"Let him in."
“……!”
Siervian was brought directly to the door of the emperor's throne room, where his father was leading a meeting with officials as the agenda this morning.
No, but why did you bring me here?
“Now. We are here, Your Majesty.”
'No way!'
However, unlike Siervian, the grand housekeeper had no talent in reading his mind, so he opened the door of the throne room widely.
The grand housekeeper gently pushed Siervian's back, and this made him step forward reluctantly.
Once he entered, many of the nobles' eyes became focused on him.
"I'm in big trouble."
No matter how naive he was, he knew it was better not to disturb the emperor while he was at work.
“Close, Siervy.”
"Yes." Yeah."
Forcibly disturbing his father, Siervian staggered forward with tears streaming down his eyes.
It was too late to turn around, so there was no other choice but to obey the orders given to him here.
"What's the problem?"
“Sebi is..”
In the end, his head started spinning hearing his father's voice as he asked him to speak at once.
He couldn't possibly say he wanted to go on a picnic when there were so many officials here working.
Moreover, the nobles who worked under the emperor's command were the ones who hated him in his previous life.
"Siervy?"
"Just…"
He wanted to escape, but he could not run away when he was in the presence of his father.
It will only make it more violent.
[Alderuan Erveldote]
Mind: You are looking for me in a hurry. Did something happen? If anyone bothers my Siervian, I won't let them go.
As he was silent for a long time, the emperor's expression hardened due to his worries.
Gradually, because Siervian was silent the entire time, he managed to think about what to do.
However, his panicked mind could not really make a rational decision.
“Se-Sebi will..”
"Yes, please talk."
The emperor's tone of voice was blunt as usual, but Siervian already knew how warm he really was.
His father's large hand, which would hold him so tightly that he didn't fall, began to be seen.
So, he reflexively sought her embrace.
"Hm?"
As Alderuan also reflexively carried his child as he grabbed it, he became very confused.
Now with Siervian carefully positioned on his lap, he kisses into his arms.
As he hid in the emperor's chest, Siervian spoke rather boldly, as if it was his intention all along.
“Sebi, Sebi can wait here patiently!”
On the one hand, this was perfect so that he would not interrupt the meeting, and at the same time, he would not break his father's orders.
But since he had already acted like a child without realizing it, it was only after he sat on his father's lap that he regained consciousness and realized.
'Argh, what have I done!'
