Not Your Perfect Prince
Mother's Concerns?

Looking towards his serious-looking mother, Reinhart felt somewhat wrong. He then explained.

"Calm down, Mother. I have absolutely no boyfriend in the academy."

Queen Evelyn stared at the figure of her son from top to bottom. After a while, he wrote.

(But you should look like your father. A playboy who loves to play games.)

"Of course not. I'm not ..." Reinhart. Staring at his mother with an expression of disbelief, he asked. "What is the father of such a man?"

(Forget four concubines. If the two of us hadn't stopped your father, who could have guessed how many women he had brought to the palace.)

(Yes. Although I admit it, your father was a good and romantic man.)

Queen Evelyn had a serious expression on her face. Nodding lightly full approval. Praising her husband in front of her son.

'The guy .. romantic?'

Reinhart immediately imagined the figure of his father who had a gloomy expression and was surrounded by an aura of pressure. Clearly, the man did not seem like a romantic figure at all.

(Could it be that you don't have any friends in the academy?)

Looking at another question, Reinhart asked back with a somewhat confused expression.

"En? Meaning Mother?"

(Not to be ashamed. The academy students are like that. Don't worry, you will definitely get a friend you can trust.)

"..."

Reinhart stared at her mother with a suspicious expression. Obviously, if inferred from the writing, his mother ... Queen Evelyn had no friends when she was in the academy!

'I can't say that I have enough friends, right?'

Reinhart thought when he saw the figure of the mother who tried to comfort him. The young man was doubtful. If he were to talk about it, maybe his mother would just freeze and then crush herself into pieces of ice cubes.

(By the way, it seems you are quite familiar with your sister, Reinhart.)

"Edsel and Edward were very close to me recently, Mother. Is something wrong?"

(No. Instead, I'm happy. I think that's how family should be. Not so cold as the ice cave in the North.)

"..."

Seeing his mother nod in satisfaction with the flat expression on his face, Reinhart was speechless. The young man could only scream and complain in his heart.

'Who is it, indeed! Father of snow mother of ice cubes, how could his son not freeze!'

Having a calm expression on his face, the young man's soul was already thrashing.

(Are you okay, Reinhart?)

"I'm fine, Mother."

(You really don't have a boyfriend at the academy?)

"Sorry, Mother. Can't we talk about something else?" reinhart said with a helpless expression.

(You look tired, so come back and rest.)

Hearing that, Reinhart felt relieved. He hurriedly replied.

"Good, Mother. Then I'm leaving."

After saying that, Reinhart stood up. He saluted before leaving. But before opening the door, he felt a gaze directed at him.

Looking back, Reinhart asked.

"Is there anything else, Mother?"

Hearing her son's question, Queen Evelyn wrote a message.

(Don't do things that are too dangerous. If there's a problem, talk to your mom or dad. We will try to help you as best we can.)

Feeling the worry of the message, Reinhart was stunned. The young man then smiled while replying.

"Thank you, Mother. Sorry to worry you, but trust me. Your son can handle it."

After saying that, Reinhart finally left.

***

Moments after Reinhart left, Queen Evelyn who was still sitting in her place opened the book.

Just then, the shadow below him wriggled. A strange creature came out from the shadows and floated next to Queen Evelyn.

Its body shape is similar to a solid black basketball with a slippery surface. Two small bat wings are on top of the creature. He had four small legs full of sharp claws and looked strange. A large yellow eye with a vertical iris in the middle of the body. Meanwhile, it does not appear other parts such as the ears, nose, or mouth.

The creature stared at Queen Evelyn. Just then, a voice appeared in the mind of the woman.

"Miss ..."

Not yet completed telepathy, the creature stopped. She saw Queen Evelyn close the book and looked at her. The meaning of the gaze was very clear.

Don't say anything.
