I Became Crown Prince's Wife
Why does this have to be an R-19 novel?bag.4

There is a fundamental difference between this rumor and the rumor that has spread throughout the country.

Emperor Phillip betrays the Goddess so he is cursed in return. However, few people know this fact.

Most people in the Empire thought that the Goddess of Light had cursed fallen souls or the seeds of a tyrant.

Suddenly, there was a change in the rumors.

“Goddess of Light was angry and cursed her descendants. It's not the heir to the curse's fault. The sin of Emperor Phillip has been carried all the way to his descendants.”

The rumors clearly stated the Truth. Whoever spread these rumors knew the truth about the curse.

And in the Empire there were very few who knew of this truth.

It was the Emperor, the High Priest and Duke Cassil.

Richard also found out about it while spying on Duke Cassil.

After all, of the three men, only Tenstheon was willing to protect the Crown Prince, even at the expense of the first Emperor's good name from the Asteri Empire.

'Why would the Emperor do that?'

The Emperor had changed after the Crown Prince fell into a coma.

He often visited the Amorian Palace to spend time with the Crown Prince.

Moreover, he even often gave gifts to the Crown Prince's servants. The nobles were a bit silent about this latest development.

As a result of the rational Tenstheon suddenly changing his attitude, rumors spread that the Emperor seemed to have found a way to dispel the curse.

The nobles and commoners both said the curse would be removed soon.

b*job.

'Did he really find a way to dispel the curse?'

'No way. If there was such a way, the curse would have already been lifted.'

Over the years, countless Emperors have tried to lift the curse. But in the end, they all failed.

Richard's mouth was lifted.

“Maybe the opposite.”

"What do you mean?"

"The Crown Prince only has a few more days."

Blake only had a few more days to live so Tenstheon wanted to accompany his son in his final moments.

However, as soon as the nobles learned that Tenstheon had visited the Crown Prince, they would start protesting.

So, Tenstheon spread rumors that the curse was about to be lifted.

This scenario makes a hundred times more sense.

“I must fast”

Richard said with a big smile on his lips.

If Blake dies, Ancia will become a princess and her new husband will become Emperor.

So he had to make Ancia his as soon as possible.

***

The Festival of Lights has begun.

The Festival of Lights, which commemorates the day when the Goddess of Light gave her powers to Phillip, lasts for fifteen days.

“Terry, prepare the turkey. I'll make a roasted turkey.”

Actually, I want to make a roast chicken, but to create a festive atmosphere, turkey is the best.

"Are you going to cook today?"

"Yes. I'll make apple pie too!”

"Your Majesty, give me a chance to work as well."

Chef Terry said playfully.

I used to cook a lot, but ever since I found out that the food I was cooking had the power of light in it, I prepared food for Blake without missing a single day.

"Your highness. Aren't you cooking every day lately? Terry and I are gonna make a turkey, so why don't you go to the square? There are so many things to see.”

Melissa also urged me to leave in a friendly manner, considering I planned to stay in the palace during the festival period.

“I don't like crowded places.”

Frankly, I want to go to the festival.

But I can go to the festival when Blake's curse is removed later.

“Melissa, you can go there with Hans.”

“A-what? Why should Hans?!”

Wh why?

I think everyone at the Amoria Palace knows they're both dating.

But seeing how embarrassed he was, I realized that the two of them might be trying to hide it.

Well, if he hasn't been willing to reveal it, I can only help him hide their relationship.

“Terry, go with your brother. Festival of Lights only comes once a year.”

Terry shook his head, recalling the time he used to work at the restaurant.

Melissa elbowed Terry on the side so she could take a hint.

"Gruesome? Your Highness, you can't believe his words, this festival is so much fun. There is much to see and much to eat. It will definitely be a good memory.”

Melissa urged me to go to the festival again.

“Your Majesty, lately you have been very busy cooking. How about you come out to refresh your mind?”

Something is unusual.

I have never attended any festival in the world before, but Melissa has never urged me like this.

"What's Melisa?"

“Ah is okay.”

Melissa waved her hand in a hurry. It makes me even more suspicious.

"Tell me!"

***

After an hour of questioning, I finally heard the truth from Melissa.

Blake had asked him to take me to the festival.

He thinks that I don't want to go to the festival because of him.

So did Tenstheon.I didn't know that Tenstheon was also worried about this.

That night, I said to Blake, "Blake, I don't like festivals."

"Why?"

“It's scary because there are so many people.I don't want to get lost.”

"Missed?"

Blake's face turned pale. He must have imagined it.

"Yes, I got lost in the square when I was a kid."

Lt's true. That's not my past, but that's what the real Ancia is going through.

Ancia's biological father, Gilbert Bellacian, once left her in the middle of the square and she went home alone.

He has left her.

“Luckily, thanks to the people in the square, I was able to return home safely.”

When Ancia returned home, Gilbert looked very upset.

Even though I wasn't the one to experience it, it was still heartbreaking to remember that day. I can only imagine how heartbreaking that day was for the real Ancia.

“Festival must be scary.”.

Of course fear and heartache are different. Ancia's memory is still on my mind, but that's not why I don't want to go to the festival.

I don't want to leave Blake alone.

If I go alone, I'll just think about Blake and not have any fun.

But Blake would get angry if I said that, so I made a different excuse.

“Sorry... I didn't know it.”

I stroked Blake's hair and grinned.

"What's there to regret about this Blake?"

"But…"

"Do you want to go to the festival?"

"No."

Is he serious?

In the original story, Blake only saw the festival once.

Jane, Blake's original waitress, has begged him to come with her.

When Blake says he doesn't want to, he pretends to cry.

After hearing Jane's fake sobs, Blake finally decides to leave.

They sneak out of the palace together and Blake watches the festival, wearing a large mask that covers his entire face. There were many people who dressed uniquely at the festival, so he did not look strange.

Blake enjoyed the festival, but the happiness didn't last long.

The maid, Jane, is a spy put in by Richard, and she has brought Blake to the festival on his orders.

Jane took off Blake's mask on purpose, and then, as if they had been waiting for him, Richard's servants shouted, "The terrible Crown Prince has appeared!"

Hearing that, the people in the square shouted and cursed Blake.

Many threw stones at Blake.

Blake was deeply hurt by the incident. In addition, Duke Cassil had also attacked Tenstheon because of this incident.

Tenstheon wanted to comfort his injured son, but wanting to protect him, the misunderstanding between the two deepened.
