Empress Josephine’s face turned red.
“How dare you kneel to such an incompetent prince? Even so, can you say that you are a knight who serves the third prince?”
“I’m sorry, Empress.”
Knight Commander Alberto lowered his head.
The pinky finger attached with divine power is still numb.
But his face showed a look that he knew this would happen.
‘For some reason, I just skipped over it.’
When you wake up, it must be that yesterday’s events bothered you.
But if he had intended to reprimand him for kneeling down, he would have summoned a sutra yesterday.
‘It’s because of Lady Isabella.’
Lady Isabella of the Countess of Versailles.
At the present time, she was enjoying tea time in the palace garden with Prince Reinhardt as if she were not returning to her family.
Upon hearing the news, Empress Josephine couldn’t help but burst into rage.
some kind of resentment.
That object became you.
“Isn’t it because of you that the daughter of the Countess of Versailles took an interest in such an incompetent crown prince?”
In the social world, Isabella is unique and famous.
An unbreakable flower, a proud rose.
As much as his appearance, he was flirted with from numerous high-ranking noble families, but he was famous for kicking them ruthlessly.
If there is anything known in the process, it is that he hates ostentation like crazy.
The plan to embarrass the crown prince by using Isabella’s personality went awry.
Empress Josephine bit her finger.
‘Has madness been cured? No, it can’t be. He’s obviously taking medicine…’
A drug that further induces madness.
Mania is difficult to cure as long as you continue to take the medicine.
However, as long as you can go outside and enjoy tea time, you are not as crazy as you used to be.
‘I can’t let His Majesty pay attention to him again.’
As his madness intensified, the emperor’s attention shifted away from the crown prince.
Even though the crown prince had been confined to the palace for half a year, he never visited.
He reluctantly consented to the marriage talk with the Countess of Versailles because he couldn’t overcome the influence of the nobles. The empress also contributed to this.
However, the situation turned out to be completely different from what the empress had hoped for.
It’s only one day.
Isabella, a deviant who is not swayed by authority, is staying because she likes the crown prince.
Or is he still pretending to be obedient because he is the ‘Prince’?
‘Contrary to rumors, Isabella was also a fox. At the same time, you pretended to be arrogant by yourself. It’s like an abominable bitch.’
Rumors are also unbelievable.
It was clear that, like all women from aristocratic families, she was looking for a man who would give her the highest price.
“Me, Empress.”
“Shut up. You don’t even have the right to speak.”
“…”
Alberto closed his mouth.
I tried to talk about the prince’s skills and madness, but was blocked at the source.
That it wasn’t smoke.
That the prince might be hiding his skills.
“Hey, today is the day the Mage Tower of Light sends people. It is the day when my son, Carmon’s brilliant talent is displayed.”
Either that or not, the empress shrugged.
Today is the day when people are sent from the Mage Tower of Light.
A glorious day where many nobles gather to watch and celebrate the growth of the 3rd Prince Carmon.
‘The place where His Majesty also resides. It has to be clearly imprinted.’
And the emperor was also there.
***
“Your Highness, is it really okay for me to stay here like this?”
Isabella stared at the teacup, then looked at Prince Reinhardt and asked with difficulty.
Originally, she was supposed to leave today, but she still couldn’t leave the imperial palace.
And it was hard to understand why he had to be here right now.
―This marriage talk, let’s pretend it didn’t exist.
At the luncheon, the prince revealed his conviction.
I thought I was lucky.
He had intended to reject it favorably, but if the crown prince didn’t like him, it would be a perfect situation.
I’m a little proud of myself, but I thought I would.
The problem was what happened next.
―Instead, I would like Jim to agree with Jim in moderation, just for ‘3 days’.
He asked me to stay at the palace for three days and drink tea with him.
If the marriage talks were discarded, it would be natural for Isabella to leave.
However, the prince wanted her to stay in the palace.
―Of course, you also have something to gain, so Jim will be your ‘friend’.
What was even more speculative was that he was talking about being a friend as if it were a huge deal.
It was full of energy, but it was impossible to ignore the prince’s words.
‘yes. Let’s wait for three days, Isabella.’
Even if it was dirty, this place was the imperial palace and the opponent was the crown prince.
After three days, you leave without looking back.
“Every time. Why do you care about the eyes you see?”
The garden on the second floor of the Crown Prince’s Palace.
It was a place where you could look down enough from other palaces.
And in the middle, I felt the eyes that made my skin ache.
“Yes. I don’t know why, but the hostile gaze…”
“never mind. The gaze sent out of envy of Jim.”
slurp!
While drinking tea leisurely, Reinhardt looked up at the sky.
The weather was nice today.
And for now, that was enough.

Just enjoying tea time with Isabella will make many people think.
Is the prince’s madness cured?
Has the crown prince really changed?
··· Called.
Showing off was the best way to let people know that I am alive and well.
I can’t believe it when someone says ‘I’m fine’.
An animal called human is as curious as a cat.
Rumors will spread quickly.
After that, people will start to interpret it arbitrarily according to their own beliefs and needs.
Those who are convinced that I am crazy will dismiss it as just a momentary whim, but those who have a glimmer of hope will definitely check it out.
My ultimate goal was the Sword King Croft.
To let gossip into his ears.
The steaming was thrown. Will the fish you want get bitten?
‘How can a person change so much in just one day?’
And Isabella captured it with eyes full of questions.
I became a completely different person.
He seems to be a bit taller, and he has gained weight that he didn’t have yesterday.
So is the atmosphere. Unlike yesterday, I have plenty of free time.
How can a person change so much in one day?
Then the prince’s gaze reached her. She quickly lowered her hand.
“You don’t have to hide your hands. Those calluses are not something to be hidden, aren’t they a sign of glory?”
“…!”
I was genuinely surprised.
Calluses on his palms.
It was something that happened while secretly learning swordsmanship.
It was deliberately hidden, so no one knew.
Especially if it’s a man I met in a place like this.
Prince Reinhardt was the first to recognize her calluses.
“A ‘friend’ should have no secrets. Don’t you think so?”
“…Isn’t it strange that a woman from an aristocratic family learns a sword?”
So, she became even colder.
In this era, in this era of peace, the sword has become a symbol of men.
He considered it a shame for a woman to learn a sword.
A secret that even the elders of the family do not know.
“I think Jim is cool. Whether you’re a man or a woman, it’s really useless to rot your talents simply because of gender differences.”
. . . I was casually digging into that secret.
cool?
Words I’ve never heard in my life.
Even if you’ve heard the word pretty or beautiful to the point of getting tired of it.
I’d never heard of it being cool.
But to think that those words would come from the ‘Crazy Prince’.
‘different······.’
now i get it
The concept of the prince is different from that of ordinary nobles.
‘Maybe it’s because of this way of thinking that I’m being called crazy.’
In today’s era, a crown prince who saw a noblewoman wielding a sword and said it was ‘cool’ would think he was crazy.
And what if strange rumors were created and made because of such an unusual way of thinking?
‘It’s the same situation.’
be in the same situation as yourself
A unique worldview. It’s wrong to be born in this world where what you should and shouldn’t do is clearly distinguished, and if you show even the slightest difference in behavior, you’re considered ‘disgraceful’.
I was dying alone like that, but it feels like I met a comrade.
“I’m going to pierce your face.”
“Yes? ah······.”
I guess I was staring too clearly.
It was then.
wheein-!
cooong!
Light bursts from the sky.
A group of dazzlingly bright lights.
“They are the people of the Mage Tower of Light.”
“If it’s the Magic Tower of Light, surely it’s one of the top three among the Magic Towers?”
Reinhardt nodded.
numerous magic towers.
Among them, the magic tower that fits within three fingers has a tremendous influence on the continental level.
It must have been an invitation to confirm the growth of the 3rd prince, Carmon, and to pay respects to the empress.
In addition, it must be to float Karmon.
However, that wasn’t the end.
Hwaaak!
A fire burns in the sky.
After that, a typhoon hit, and ice flowers embroidered everywhere.
“Doesn’t it seem like only the Magic Tower of Light came…?”
“Everything has come.”
The 4 princes except for himself.
They were geniuses with talents of fire, wind, light, and ice, respectively.
And all the magic towers related to it had a procession at the same time.
It’s prudent to call it a coincidence.
Perhaps all the princes and empresses were forced to call for competition.
‘I remember.’
Originally, on this day, I should have been confined to the crown prince’s womb.
Madness flared up and he tried to attack Isabella, so he was forbidden even to go outside by order of the emperor.
‘It has nothing to do with me.’
There was no way that the Mage Tower would support me as I had no magical talent.
It’s an event that has nothing to do with me.
‘For some reason, there is no proper mention from Zero.’
When I was told that I would dominate and use unauthorized nanomachines, I agreed.
After sucking up all the mana around him, Zero kept saying similar words.
[Interpreting…]
[Interpreting unauthorized nanomachines.]
[Detected a self-replicating virus, remove the virus with administrator privileges.]
[Removal complete.]
[The factor of ‘induced pluripotent stem cell’ is transplanted.]
[Access complete. The unauthorized nanomachines succeed in dominating.]
[16% left until the dominance of all unauthorized nanomachines.]
Almost done.
I wonder what will happen when it’s done.
That was the moment.
chuck. chuck.
Knights broke into my garden.
It was impossible, but those who could do it.
“What is the Imperial Guard doing to me?”
It is the emperor’s direct guard.
The guards captain looked at me and said heavily.
“Your Highness, Your Majesty is calling.”
“me?”
“Yes. They want you to participate in the ‘event’ together.”
event
Are you saying that the gathering of the magic towers is an event?
It’s something that didn’t happen in the past.
Even if my madness didn’t go away yesterday, it’s sudden.
father. It’s because the emperor doesn’t expect anything from me.
He couldn’t have changed his mind in one day and called me.
‘Empress Josephine.’
She must have put pressure on it.
In order to make up for yesterday’s mistake, it seemed like a ploy to get the emperor’s attention by inviting me to compare him with the third prince.
Incompetent princes and competent princes.
I could feel the intention of making him just a spectator.
‘It’s peaceful.’
A bloody laugh came out.
Such pranks are possible because peace is guaranteed.
Real madness, those who don’t even know what hell is.
If it was me in the past, I would have been treated like an idiot without even reading his intentions.
Now that I have returned, I have no intention of being dragged away like a criminal.
“Tell me that you will finish drinking the tea and leave.”
“I want you to bring me right now…”
“Did you really say that? You want me to come right away?”
“…”
“Do you have the right to interpret and make up His Majesty’s words as you please?”
“That’s not it.”
“Then I’ll take care of it, so go back.”
The guards commander closed his mouth.
He only told me to bring him, because he didn’t say exactly when.
dried properly The guards commander’s eyes became confused.
It’s like I never thought I’d get a reaction like this.
“It tastes good.”
I thought while drinking tea.
He said that it would be difficult to fit in with the empress’ pranks.
