I Became Crown Prince's Wife
The epilogue....

I grabbed Shulia's hand. Then he opened his eyes bigger and gulped.

"How are you feeling?"

I smiled and let go of his hand.

"I feel better."

"really?"

"That's right. I feel better. Thank you for taking care of me.”

I patted her hair.

He eventually overcame tancinol. There was no trace of mana crooked anymore in his body.

"Then, can I go back to the orphanage now?"

"Of course."

"Can I meet Brother Ruo?"

"Yes, you'll see each other soon."

Karuo is alive. His sister Karan is also alive.

Richard does not want it, but due to his mistake, he gives his life to save Karan and leave the world.

They are still being investigated.

Karuo is a child, and he is just washed away by the situation around him without knowing anything, so he will be released soon after the investigation is completed.

However, Karan and Connin commit a crime.

They regret the past and confess all their sins.

In particular, Karan is shocked by the fact that Richard was an enemy who killed their parents and tried to sacrifice them.

However, no matter how much Richard deceived them, their crimes were simply too great.

They were not adults, so even if they avoided the death penalty, they would have to spend their lives in prison.

“Shulia!”

"Teacher!"

Michelle came to see Shulia after hearing that she had fully recovered.

As soon as she saw Michelle, she ran over with a big smile.

“Thank you, Your Grace. Thank you very much."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

When Michelle thanked him, Shulia quickly followed the desert and lowered her head.

“Shulia, stay healthy. Eat a healthy diet for now, okay? ”

"Yes!"

Shulia answered boldly. She looked so healthy that I couldn't believe she had just overcome a severe illness.

"Goodbye, Your Majesty."

He waved his hand and returned to the orphanage.

The last patient left the training center.

And the plague that shook the empire completely disappeared.

I found the device that caused tancinol in the secret fortress where Richard kidnapped me.

It was an old box. But there's only a letter in it.

It was Ser's letter saying that everything had been purified.

Tancinol will never appear on earth again.

Not only Richard, but also the deeds of the Kensway family, which had caused tancinol for a thousand years, were revealed.

When the Kensway family is revealed to be causing tancinol, everyone ignores those words and simply blames the roum.

But when the cure is developed and the disease is gone, people gradually begin to accept the truth.

People cursed Richard and were angry with the Kensway family.

However, when the deeds of the first emperor Phillip were revealed, the people were astonished.

The Empire is shocked when the reality of the great founder, who has been chosen by the goddess, is revealed.

Tenstheon apologized for Phillip's evil deeds as Emperor of the Asteris Empire. Blake and I were there together.

We revealed all the truths that happened a thousand years ago, and rearranged the history books of the Zelkan Empire.

The name Rakshul was also cleared after a thousand years.

This is something that has been prepared even before tancinol occurs.

If all the facts are revealed, there may be a crisis in the survival of the Asteric Empire and the imperial family, but if we continue to hide it, we cannot break the tangled thread of a thousand years ago.

However, the imperial people were shocked by Phillip's misdeeds and were not angry with the current imperial family.

Tenstheon was now the greatest emperor in the history of the empire, as the empire was in an era of unprecedented peace and prosperity.

Moreover, there was no longer the trial of the reckless demon and tancinol contracts, which had terrorized the populace for a thousand years.

The goddess of light also gave her power to the Crown Prince and Crown Princess. The people of the empire thought that this was a way for the goddess to forgive the past and pray for the blessings of the empire.

The series of events also changed the perception of the citizens.

For a thousand years, the roum had no choice but to become slaves or live secretly.

Even if they were freed from slavery, they did not know when they would be taken back or killed unjustly.

Tenstheon tried to crack down on the roum slave trade and prevent murder, but he could not control everything that was done secretly.

But now, everything is different.

Their view of Roum also changed. Of course, the humiliation that was entrenched for a thousand years would not disappear in an instant, but it would gradually increase.

The right to Roum was also granted.

The Empire abolished the ban on roum entry and many other things.

There was a reaction to this, but it wasn't as strong as I thought.

It is revealed that Roum is not a sinner but a victim of Phillip's wishes, so there is no justification to stop them.

The year was almost over when I finished tancinol and revealed the truth a thousand years ago.

There is a place I would love to visit before the year goes by. It was my mother's grave.

I went to my mom's grave with Blake. It was the first time in seven years, but the funeral was well-managed. This was because Blake and Tenstheon paid special attention to him.

I put flowers on the grave and touched the monument without a word. Blake also bowed politely, putting down flowers.

"Mom, I'm here."

Blake said he stopped by every time he went back and forth to the valley of chaos to find me. He also said that he came alone and greeted her even after he found me.

However, I hesitated to come here even after returning to the palace.

Seven years ago, I only made an official visit once a year.

I just thought of her as Ancia's real mother. I didn't even dream that she was my birth mother who gave birth to me.

I really wanted to come here after returning to the capital. But I hesitated, because I did not have my real body. After my body returned, I delayed my promise to come even when the situation stabilized, and time had passed.

"I'm here .. mother."

The word "mother" feels foreign.

A thousand years ago, and in Korea, I rarely said "mother" because my mother always died early.

As I let out an awkward word, tears filled my eyes.

"I'm late. sorry I didn't visit you all this time.”.

Blake patted my back and clasped my hand tightly. Her body temperature calms me down.

“We will hold the wedding.”

I asked Blake to throw a party to celebrate her becoming an adult, but she insisted that she wouldn't throw such a party unless I was the one who was holding the debut party myself.

In the end, we decided to have a wedding ceremony rather than a separate party for ourselves.

We had a little ceremony in our childhood. However, the words "imperial family wedding" or "marriage" in itself are not suitable to describe our shabby ceremony.

That's why I decided to have a real wedding again.

Instead of a terrible crown prince and a neglected princess. Now is the wedding of the crown prince and crown princess.

“We will do it next spring. Please look at it from the sky. ”

If my mom saw my wedding 10 years ago, she'd be pretty upset. But I'm sure he'll be happy to see her this time.

“Ya, please see us. Mom, we're going to have the best wedding ever.”

He held my hand firmly. He seemed more reliable and trustworthy today.

“I'm always happy.”

"I won't make him suffer."

“I never had any trouble.”

I never thought our time together was so hard. All the time I spent with him was precious.

Blake hugged my shoulder without saying a word. I also put my head on his shoulder.

***

When I returned to the palace by train, I could see people filling the square.

“Should we see it?”

"certain."

I nodded at Blake's words.

Since the tancinol outbreak ended, the crowd was much larger than usual and people seemed more energetic than the usual year-end festivals.

We walked down the street holding hands.

We don't have to do anything. Just being able to walk on such a crowded street made my heart happy.

Holding her hand tightly, I stopped in one place.

New books in front of the bookstore.

One of them is a fairy tale book called 'Blessed Princess.'

It was the same title as the book I had seen in this bookstore before. The cover changed, but looking at the same title, it seemed like the same book as before.

But the book is new?

I hesitated for a moment and opened the book.

The blessed princess is married to the terrible crown prince of a neighboring country. The princess and the prince loved each other, and the prince was finally freed from the curse. But in return, the princess lost her life.

The prince shed tears alone, longing for the princess who died because of him.

It's the same story I saw before.

I became sad, and regretted having seen it for no reason.

But that's not the end of the book.

A goddess appeared in front of the crying prince, telling him how to recover the blessed princess.

The prince was willing to endure the ordeal of finding the princess, and the goddess also gave him the strength to meet the princess again.

In the end, the prince and princess met again.

[Blessed princess and prince of light live happily ever after.]

The fairy tale ended with a scene where the two returned to the imperial palace and looked at each other with loving gazes.

Seeing the prince and princess smiling widely, I naturally smiled.

“What book is it?”

I gave Blake the book. Blake, who was reading the book, smiled like me.

After we bought a fairy tale book, we walked down the street again.

“Blake.”

"Yes." Yeah."

"Let's live happily too."

“Of course, I will make you smile every day.”

Blake held my hand tight. I also held his hand tightly.

The crowd suddenly buzzed.

“It's snowing!”

"Snow!"

As I lifted my head, I saw white snow falling from the sky. It was the first snow of the year.

"How long has it been…"

I stared at the snow with a blank look. This is the first time I've seen him in seven years. And it's been seven years since I saw the snow with Blake.

“Let's keep seeing it together from now on.”

"Yes, let's be together every time it snows."

I smiled at Blake's words.

Next year, I'll see the first snow with Blake, in the next two years, 10 years and 20 years. We'll be together forever.

But Blake shook his head.

"No, not the first snow."

"Then?"

"Second snow, third snow, fourth and fifth snow, let's see together."

"When do you think it'll snow again?"

"No, we can be together every day."

"Every day?"

"Yes every day."

I was so shocked that I laughed. Blake's expression quickly became gloomy.

“My wife, what's wrong? You don't want to be with me?”

“No, not that..”.

“Then you will be right next to me every day, right?”

“No, the.. we have to work.”.

There is something to be done as Crown Prince and Crown Princess. It was practically impossible to be together all day like when we were kids. I tried to say that but I kept quiet.

Seeing Blake's pitiful expression, I couldn't say no.

I was always weak to that expression.

“Alright, let's always be together every day.”

"really?"

“Ya, right.”

“Please promise me.”

"I promise."

Blake smiled brightly and hugged my waist.

The cute bunny when we were little disappeared and he quickly became a charming beast.

How do rabbits become animals?

Blake's face approached and our lips kissed each other.

It was a kiss that was soft and sweet like snow.
