Tansinol.
A thousand years later, the illness Philip created for his selfish desires still troubled many.
But when I think about it, it's weird. Why does the disease still exist?
Tancinol is made by artificially rotating light mana. It is not a disease that occurs naturally.
Of course, after a long time, the disease called tancinol itself may have changed.
It is possible that a completely different disease from a thousand years ago could have spread around the world under the name 'tancinol' or contained within which light spread to humans in some form.
But even if I think about it that way, it's still strange.
"Sister, what are you thinking so seriously?"
“No, no.”
I shook my head.
We were on our way back to the palace after leaving the Camellia orphanage.
I said I was fine, but Diana insisted on driving me home to the palace.
Everyone seems to be worried about me.
“More than that, Diana, have you thought about what I said?”
"Huh?"
"I mean your debut."
Diana is an adult but has yet to make her debut.
Gilbert Bellacian died, and his mother did not take care of him. Hence, there was no one who could help him prepare for his debut.
If only I had been there, I could have helped him…
But I can't just regret it. I'll help him make his debut now that things aren't too busy.
"no need. It's past from my birthday.”
“Many people do it after their birthday.”
“You didn't do it either.”
“I even attended many other parties.”
"Your Majesty didn't do it either."
Blake also doesn't have his maturity dance party. Maybe because of me…
"Your Majesty will do it soon."
Blake refused, just like Diana, but I wanted her to experience it.
“Then just tell Your Majesty to do it. I hate wearing dresses and dancing around men.”
He shook his head. I didn't say it again because he refused.
But I really want to make a dance party for Diana ...
While I was thinking about it, the carriage arrived at the Forens Palace.
"Diana, thank you so much for coming with me today."
"No, you can call me anytime."
He said he had to return to the academy without time for tea.
"Road the train."
“I prefer riding horses. That's more convenient, I'll go now.”
I was looking at his back when he went and ordered Jayden.
"Jayden, please take Diana with you."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Jayden stepped to Diana's side. But Diana waved her hand.
"No need, just go back."
"Let's go together."
“You don't know my abilities? I don't need a bodyguard.”
“Who said I wanted to escort you? I just want to walk with you.”
Diana was embarrassed as Jayden said nonchalantly.
"Ah, what, what, I understand ..."
Both go hand in hand.
Are you sure he's just a friend?
Looking at them, I smiled brightly.
“Why are you smiling like that?”
Hearing that familiar voice, Blake's eyes met mine.
"Huh?"
"You smile at the man."
"When?"
"Just now."
He pouted while hugging my waist.
"I smiled at Diana."
"really?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Don't smile at anyone else."
Unlike her cute voice, her eyes looked serious.
"okay."
I smiled and stroked her hair.
Then, his expression seemed relaxed.
He looks like a puppy today.
“How is the event today?”
“I'd really like to meet my wife throughout the event.”
Now he sounds like a puppy.
I knew that he would do well even if he said it like that.
Blake is known for his great skill in handling political affairs.
"Are you okay, my wife?"
"Yes, but I'm a little disappointed."
"Why?"
“A child is still on my mind. I should've hugged her a little longer.”.
I kept thinking about Shulia, who was crying. I felt sympathy because I felt like I was seeing myself before I married Blake.
"Let's go there with me next time."
"Can I really do that?"
I think he'll say no…
“Go wherever you want, but you have to come with me. If you try to go alone again like this, I'll get mad.”
Blake seemed to be very surprised by my sudden visit today.
"Okay, let's go together next time."
I hugged my worried groom tightly and said that.
***
Karuo was studying, the door suddenly opened as Shulia entered.
"Sister, are you studying?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"What did you learn?"
“You won't understand.”
Karuo has the best grades in the orphanage. He is 9 years old, but he can solve problems that 11-year-old Tom cannot solve.
"Hehe."
“What are you laughing for?”
Karuo said briefly.
He was always gentle, that's why others often chose him because they thought he was an easy target.
At least she was smiling now, it was better than crying. He thought that he was still sad about the recent events.
"Sister, eat this."
Shulia extended her hand. Two yellow candies were placed in her small hands.
"What'sthis? Where'd you get it? ”
“Your Majesty gave it to me during the snack time before.you didn't come, that's why I took it for you. Let's eat together.”
He gave her a proud smile. But Karuo threw the candy in his hand on the floor.
“Why did you take this?don't eat it either! ”
"Sister!"
"He is the Crown Princess!"
"I know, but I think he's a good man."
Ancia hugs Shulia, who is bullied by Tom.
Although she knew that she was a Roum, she said Shulia had done nothing wrong.
Shulia really liked the Crown Princess.
“They are not good people! He's one of the imperial family that tried to kill Richard! You gonna eat what he gave you?”
"But they said it was Richard's fault..."
“They lied! Richard was framed because they were afraid he would become Emperor! It's always like that! The Emperor unjustly killed Richard's family!”
Richard said that the Crown Prince is a monster.
Also, the emperor was very wary of Richard because he knew that Richard was better than the Crown Prince.
The other nobles were not happy with the person who bled Roums becoming the next emperor.
So they work together to accuse Richard's family of treason and take Richard's title.
“The people of the empire are all the same! They are our enemies!”
Karuo remembered the past. He used to live in Roum village.
Although the village consists only of the Karuo, Connin, and Shulia families.
Roum was treated harshly wherever they went and was targeted by slave traders.
Three families lived in the deep forest, and relied on each other. It was a difficult time but they were happy. There is no discrimination there.
However, the happy days ended so suddenly. People who live in distant lands come there.
They kill their parents, siblings, and burn down their house, telling them they must destroy the rum that spreads tancinol.
Everyone died, only the older sisters Karuo, Karan, Connin, and Shulia survived.
They are filled with sadness and revenge. But realistically, there was nothing they could do.
No one sided with Roum, even if they complained.
Richard appeared in front of the four as they were desperate.
Richard saved them. He teaches Karan and Connin black magic and helps his family to take revenge.
Karuo and Shulia go to Camellia's orphanage.
“I want to be with my brother.”
Karuo wanted to be with his older sister, but he shook his head strongly.
“No, it's dangerous. I'll help Richard become emperor. When he becomes emperor, Roum will have a world where they cannot be discriminated against
“I'll also help you!”
“You should study well instead. Richard will need a great assistant when he becomes emperor. I'll make a country for Roums with him.”
Brother's right. Karuo remains in the orphanage as he said. Moreover, she was the only one who could protect the young Shulia.
“Emperor trap Richard. You must be careful! We have to trust Richard!”
Richard saved them. He will help her to build a world where Roums are not discriminated against.
“Richard will definitely create such a world for us..”.
But Karuo doesn't explain much to Shulia.
It was too difficult to understand for young Shulia. Moreover, it was a secret plan that only Richard and a few people knew about.
He's good, but keeping secrets is another matter. It's not time to tell him.
"I hate Richard."
shulia said timidly, looking at the candy lying on the floor the entire time Karuo spoke.
