Does he still have any thoughts of coming to the Crown Prince's Palace?


Ever since Blake and I stormed into Tenstheon's room three years ago, the two had never come face to face.


I want to force the two of them to meet each other, but that could be a reason for Duke Cassil to attack them.


The Emperor knew that, so he held back even though he wanted to see Blake as well.


"How is he today?"


He asked about Blake's condition implicitly. He couldn't come to see her, but he was still worried about her.


"Yes, right. She has no fever and she is having fun today.”


"good. What about you, Ancia?”


“I'm so happy to see Blake and dad enjoying my meal.”


"Omong empty."


He spoke frankly, but there was a slight smile hanging in his mouth.


“That's right, Dad. Try some of these too. I boiled it for you.”


"What about you?"


"I've eaten."


“Do you not like spicy food?you won't eat it when you're with Blake. Drink that. ”


"Should I?"


I thought I ate a lot, but when I saw the spicy soup, my appetite returned again.


Should I try some stew? I couldn't overcome my will and grabbed the spoon.


“Ah, spicy.”


It was a bit disappointing because there was no kimchi in the soft tofu stew, but tofu was so savory that it was delicious to eat.


“It's delicious, isn't it?”


I was a little embarrassed after saying that. Did I brag too much after I managed to cook it?


I was worried that I might look a little brash, but Tenstheon had a subtle smile on his face.


“My daughter-in-law made it, so of course it feels good.”


"Hehe."


“Is there anything you want? Since you have served me such precious food, I will give you a gift. ”


Normally, I would refuse when he offered such a thing. Tenstheon sends me presents every day.


Not because I was greedy, and my room was full of stuff so I didn't want anything else, but today was different.


“There are places I want to visit.”


"Where? Just say it."


“Tenlarn.” Palace


Tenstheon stiffened after hearing my words.


"Tenlarn Palace?"


Tenlarn Palace was the last Palace of the Zelcan Empire, and at the same time, it was the first Palace of the Asteri Empire.


Phillip, the first Emperor, destroyed the Zelcan Empire, which had fallen into vain after enjoying the luxuries and pleasures, and founded the Asteric Empire.


Although it was natural to build a new Imperial Palace when a new country was established, Phillip used the Royal Palace from an earlier era.


To build a new Palace, they needed more money and manpower. Phillip said he did not want to burden the people suffering from Zelcan tyranny, so he changed the name of the Zelcan Altar Palace, to Tenlarn Palace.


However, his good intentions led to tragedy.


Rakshul, head of the Zelcan revival movement and last prince of Zelcan, knows the structure of Tenlarn Palace. Naturally, since he was born and raised there.


He stormed the Imperial Palace through the secret passageway of Tenlarn Palace and burned it.


The great fire was said to have lasted for over a month, and Tenlarn Palace, as well as the Zelcan Capital, all disappeared into the flames.


Not only that, but also Roum polluted the land and water with black magic, making the entire city of Khan a lifeless land.


Emperor Phillip was forced to turn the Capital into Senion and build a new Senion Palace, and since then, Senion has been the Capital of Asteri for the past thousand years.


Hence, Tenlarn Palace and Khan City became 'forbidden lands' where no one could enter.


"Why do you want to go to Tenlarn Palace?"


"I'll probably find a clue about the stone slab when I go to the Palace."


An ancient language was carved on a stone slab found in the pool of the Amoria Palace.


But a few days ago, I found a clue.


The screams of a woman, a blazing fire, a beautiful dance hall decorated with jewels, and stone slabs on the other side…


The view is still fresh in my memory…


The interior of the place is luxurious and unique. Based on clear memories, I searched for materials and found that it was an architectural style that was popular during the Zelcan Empire.


In addition, the gold pillars decorated with jewels are said to be the symbol of Tenlarn Palace, which is filled with luxury and fun.


Perhaps it was Tenlarn Palace, and what I saw in that vision was Tenlarn Palace at the time of the fire.


I don't know why something that had happened a thousand years ago suddenly appeared in my memory.


I don't know why, but if it's really a scene from the past, then I should go to Tenlarn Palace. I saw a stone slab like the one found in the pond there.


“The great fire swept away everything, and the land was polluted by black magic. I can't let you go to such a dangerous place.”


“I'll catch a glimpse into Tenlarn Palace. It'll only take a minute. ”


“Nothing is left as everything is charred to ashes.”


Tenstheon always listened to everything I said, but this time he was stubborn….


“But you never know. Maybe we can find a clue.”…


“It was a forbidden land. The Imperial Family cannot go there.”


Just before he died, Phillip mentioned in his will that no one should step on Khan's land.


If anyone stepped on the Khan's land, misfortune would befall them, and if it was the Emperor, it would cause a great disaster for the entire Empire.


This made it a forbidden land, not only for someone, but also for the Emperor.


"Do you believe in the words of Emperor Phillip?"


I think Tenstheon wouldn't believe such a will when we don't know about the truth behind the curse


“I don't believe in his words. I don't know if those words are true, and even so, they are political statements aimed at the Zelcan remnants. ”


Tenstheon was also not misled by such nonsense. With a smile on his face, he added, “But others will believe it. If the Royal Family went to a place where ordinary people did not even dare to pass through, there would be a violent reaction.”


"I can go quietly."


“Ancia.”


Tenstheon called me by my name, but I didn't want to retract my statement.


I don't think Tenstheon cares what Phillip says. Wasn't Phillip himself the one who betrayed the Goddess and brought his anger to the Empire?


“Not many people are watching me, so I can go quietly..”.


“Then ask someone else to go.”


“No, I have the ability to read the ancient language to find clues in Tenlarn Palace. I have to go alone.”


I need to find a clue in the debris that's been burning. If one did not know the ancient language, it would be impossible for them to find the clues.


When I did not retract my words, Tenstheon gently closed his eyes.


He has always been a haughty Emperor, and I have never seen him overthink anything before, but I cannot give up.


“His Majesty's condition is unusual. He's fine today, but I don't know when he'll get sick again.I might find a way to dispel his curse at Tenlarn Palace. No, I can definitely find him!I mean it…!"


Tenstheon continued, “Ancia, you are also my son. I can't let you go to a dangerous place just for Blake.”


“….”


When did the beast come to look at me with such warm eyes?


“It's harmless.I'll just take a walk to the old historic site. ”


“This is no ordinary site.”


“I can protect myself with mana stone. Blake is family to me too. I might be able to lift the curse, so I can't give up like this. Nothing will happen to me.”


“Ancia.”


“I'll be back soon. Ah, my father.”


“…….”


When I called him my father, Tenstheon's red pupils trembled. I clasped his hand.


"Please. Dad, please let me just this once. ”


“...this time only.”


Tenstheon opened his mouth with great difficulty. I smiled and hugged him.


"Yes! Thank you! Thank you! Daddy!"
