Marquis François Duheme parked a large trunk next to him, and with a piece of cloth in one hand, he began to speak.
When the marquise’s one-man show began, Tae-ui quietly packed her bags.
This is a scene I often see on the subway.
“A very special glue was applied to the back of the piece of cloth. You seem curious, can I give you a hint? You can think of ‘magic beast’ and ‘glue’ together. fu fu fu. Simply attach this part under the ear, and the glue and the mana in the fabric combine to create a special reaction. It’s also something that I personally participated in the research…”
He was very talkative and, as I was told, a great servant.
All the gestures were loud and fast, so it would be noisy even if you just closed your mouth and talked with your body.
Cardinal Butier took Kimi, or no portal sickness medicine, from the Marquis’s hands while blatantly leaking explanations.
“ah! You’re interested, too, Your Majesty Aurelie.”
“François, could you please be quiet? The prince is sick.”
There was annoyance in her voice.
It was surprising because it was the first time I had ever seen a cardinal treat someone like that.
But the Marquis Duhem was not at all discouraged.
“Actually, I made a mistake. But don’t worry too much, as you’ll be waking up soon. Prince Jesse, here are more.”
He smiled brightly and began to rummage through the other bags.
Even though I thought that a person equal to a marquis didn’t have much weight, I decided to thank him for coming to listen to me.
Being smart and interested in the welfare of the people of Yeongji meant that he was a pretty decent person in power.
Instead of being infinitely light in words and deeds, he had a face and financial powers, so it seemed like a business that could be done with plus or minus.
“Come on, take it.”
The Marquis came limp and offered me a motion sickness medicine.
It was only then that I realized that I had not been able to check Taeui’s condition because I was listening to him.
“How did you hurt your leg?”
I asked.
Then the Marquis made a dramatic move, as if waiting, and caressed his splinted left leg.
The pale pink eyes trembled softly. It’s like watching some kind of play.
“Dear His Majesty the Emperor, on behalf of the Lord, inflicted scorching earthly pain on me.”
You screwed up the joint.
“I heard that you are offering the new ‘Hwaseong Wisdom’ in the territory as a prize for winning the ‘Great Subjugation of Demonic Beasts’.”
I spoke out. The only reason the emperor could call him and kick him was the sword.
The cardinal dropped my class to correct the marquise’s blasphemy, and the emperor traded my interview with Sir Sarah Beliard.
It was a little surprising that the emperor inflicted violence on the marquis, but it was not surprising considering the nature of Emperor Frederic he had heard about.
“That’s right. Even though it was a decision that all came from the loyalty of me and my family, the north wind blows in His Majesty’s longan…”
“Look lucky that your legs are still attached.”
The cardinal cut off sharply. The Marquis made a ‘heuk-heuk’ sound through his voice.
I burst into laughter because it felt like I was watching a comte.
It was said that the Marquis Duhemt was the emperor’s closest confidant, and in a sense, it seemed like a real family.
“First of all, thank you for the motion sickness medicine.”
I grabbed the laughter house and received the medicine the marquis had given me.
He bowed gracefully with an incredibly dramatic movement.
I had a lot of exercise, so I wanted to have a slim body.
“Then I must have used the carriage all the time when I came from the new country. It must have been a lot of trouble.”
The cardinal looked at me in a sorry voice.
I was a little stiff at the unexpected words. Then I saw that
It is said that portals are widely used in the Penetian New Kingdom, but with such a body, Prince Jesse would not have been able to ride the portal.
Even if I had boarded it, I would have crossed the border in a state of half fainting.
“Well, it’s all in the past.”
I just stumbled Compassion was reflected in the beige eyes that looked at me.
I wasn’t aiming for it, but it looks like I got a sympathy vote.
“As long as the medicinal effect is clear, you can try the portal again.”
she said quietly. I nodded my head tremblingly.
There was medicine, but I couldn’t say I didn’t like it.
No matter which way he left, it was only natural that he would be a high school student when he left the house.
This will be my first and last outing, so I decided to think positively.
– quiver
Demi awoke from her sleep and cried a little on my stomach.
I counted the date, stroking his warm hair.
The Great Beast Subjugation is May 8th and today is April 27th.
It was said that it would take about four days to ride a horse from the Yellow Capital to the estate of the Marquis Duem.
It would have taken more than four days if I had to ride a carriage because the medicine didn’t work.
Well, don’t you have a lot of spare time?
“Whenever you come, we, Marquis Duhem, will serve Prince Jesse with all our heart.”
The Marquis stretched out like a peacock and said. I smiled vaguely.

After that, three very peaceful days passed.
It means that I haven’t met Kristel or Prince Sedric for three days. muscle is so good
“Where do you put your clothes for the party?”
“Put it in the bag in the corner over there. The new shoes are supposed to arrive in the afternoon, so I’ll put them together later.”
“Yes, Benjamin-sama!”
“Bengjamin, there are three bishops…”
“Canael-sama, I have to prepare a snack for the prince at dawn…”
Thousands of people have been coming and going non-stop in my room and hallway, indoors and outdoors since morning.
It wasn’t just Benjamin and Canael.
All the servants and servants of Juliet’s Palace were mobilized, and there was no mind at all.
It was because I was leaving for the estate of the Marquis Duhem tomorrow.
Under Benjamin’s pressure that ‘to be still is to help’, I sat in a soft armchair and killed my presence.
A little while ago, when I tried to change my pajamas, some servants gave me a bitter glance.
I don’t know who is the leader…
“Demi, come here.”
– Kururu
I summoned a red panda, who rolls around on the carpet, and put it on my lap, and I drew a quill on the high-quality paper I got from the servant.
-talent!
“Shh, everyone is working, so you should be quiet.”
The pen that seeps out ink every time it moved was amazing, so Demi followed my hand and vigorously stirred the black paws.
I couldn’t draw a circle because I couldn’t see the paper.
I was going to study a bit using the interlude, but my companion Shinsoo was very uncooperative.
– Tick Tick
“Hello, Prince Jesse.”
Then, someone knocked on the open door. It was a familiar voice.
I raised my head and greeted her.
“Hello, Sir Elizabeth.”
Today, Sir Elizabeth, who has a refreshing face, came into my room with Canael’s arms folded.
Canael’s face was a little red and he was sticking out his kettle.
I thought about it before, but the two seemed to be really close.
“Canael, you too should rest for a while.”
“but······.”
At my words, the boy frowned. Everyone was busy, but it looked like he was sorry to play alone.
“He brought two glasses of juice to drink with me.”
As Sir Elizabeth spoke playfully, Canael’s face burned bright red.
“That, that!”
“Canael, like a tomato.”
“By the way, the juice is also tomato juice.”
Me and the lieutenant commander added one word at a time. The boy almost cried.
I thought I would get pricked up if I tease him too much, so I laughed about that, sat Canael down, and turned around.
“I’m leaving tomorrow, so I’m going to have a lot of work.”
“I am going to play, so I am happy. Outside work is the best.”
Sir Elizabeth smiled and lifted the glass of tomato juice as a toast.
The appearance of her wanting to participate in the Great Beast Subjugation this year seemed to overlap.
While Canael was pouring hot elderberry tea into my cup, the commander of the neighborhood guard shook his head and brought out the main point.
“Then, I will give you a schedule briefing. Tomorrow at 11am, you will be taken to the south of the ecliptic through the portal closest to the Imperial Palace. The portal is located in the Rho district, the center of the ecliptic.”
I nodded and placed a banana in Demi’s mouth.
It was a division of labor system where I peeled my skin and held it, and Demi grabbed my wrist and took one bite at a time.
“We decided to use the portal only once, so it will be the first and last on the way.”
“All right.”
I answered.

Over the past three days, I have been tested for motion sickness several times with Tae-ui, Cardinal, and Marquis Duhem.
It has become the subject of clinical trials for drugs that have not yet been marketed.
At this point, I felt like I was being used quite well as a hostage.
As a result of putting the medicine under the ear and climbing directly over the underground portal of the Imperial Palace, it was concluded that there was no problem using the portal at least once a day.
From the second time on, it was quite difficult even with medication.
‘Then you’ll be back in three days. Put one on in the morning, ride the portal, rest. The next day, put on another one, ride the portal, and rest. You’re repeating it!’
The Marquis Duhem liked like a mad scientist,
‘It is not recommended to use it throughout the itinerary as it may have side effects.’
Tae-eui broke the break with very rational words.
‘François, I don’t like hitting your back, so do it in moderation. It would be better to take the medicine on the first day and ride a carriage from the second day.’
It was Cardinal Boutier who arranged the situation.
A portal was a kind of subway station-like concept, rather than being able to move from one place to another.
It would be great if you could go directly to the Marquis Realm from the Leo portal that is located in the ecliptic, but you had to move from Leo to another town’s portal and then go to the next portal from there.
Even the wages were so high that commoners and poor aristocrats could not even afford to use them.
“We expect it to take at least four days from the south of the ecliptic to the Marquis of Duhem. It may change depending on the weather or road conditions.”
“yes.”
Even though I was told that I had to run for four days, I was somehow excited like the day before the school trip.
Until yesterday, I honestly didn’t think much of it.
However, seeing the people of Juliet’s Palace busy packing their luggage from early hours, my heart fluttered and I became curious about the world outside.
I went down to the basement of the Imperial Palace and climbed the mountain behind it.
I went in and out of several buildings, and the temple was even slightly repaired at my will.
But so far, my route has always been within the Imperial Palace.
It wasn’t that I was dissatisfied with it, but it was definitely a positive thing to be able to come into contact with a larger ‘Toegye Gong’ worldview.
“You look good.”
“You must be happy because it’s your first outing.”
Sir Elizabeth and Canael laughed happily.
I got embarrassed and rubbed Demi’s black belly. are you so pissed off?
“A total of 10 wagons move. In the eighth generation, servants, escorts, and loads were loaded…”
“Ten years old?”
I became dumbfounded. I thought it would be three or four at most, but it seemed like too many.
Aren’t you spending too much money on a hostage? No, do you care more because you’re a pawn?
“I’m not running away.”
“Ha ha ha ha ha.”
At my bewildered words, Sir Elizabeth laughed out loud. But I was sincere.
There is nowhere to go anyway, and it would be dangerous to be alone, but what are you doing running away from a place that is comparable to a five-star hotel?
The most important thing for me was survival.
“Say that to ‘little boy’ later.”
“If it’s a little kid…”
I blurted out my words. Sir Elizabeth smiled, slowly opening her gray eyes like a cat.
So, I was talking about Sadie. I glanced at Canael’s eyes.
It seemed that the boy was distracted by Demi and didn’t listen to our conversation.
“Next, let’s have a briefing on the schedule.”
I changed the topic.
I was reluctant to bring up Sadie’s story in places where there are many people.
Sir Elizabeth smiled at me like that, then pulled out a map of the Empire from her bosom and unfolded it.

the beginning of May.
Between the Palaces of Juliet and Romero, a long procession of carriages lined up.
The large and beautiful steeds were quietly waiting for their departure.
The huge imperial coat of arms embedded in the side of the black carriage gleamed as if it could be seen from 500 meters away.
Benjamin and Canael got on first in the sixth carriage assigned to me.
I was waiting in the garden for Demi, who had not yet returned.
With the intention of kidnapping him as soon as he came out of the grass, I stood still, opened the circle, and released the ether.
“Demi, come out now. You should go see your friends.”
I put a pitch in the sentence and said it out loud.
When I thought of the red pandas who would be the first to go to the Marquis, the corners of my lips went up. That was then.

The door of the fifth carriage, standing in front of my carriage, opened.
I reflexively looked back to where the sound was coming from.
“You are late.”
Following the low-pitched tone of the voice actor reciting a poem, a man with a very familiar face appeared.
My pulse loosened and my sanctuary expanded. There is no portal, and my stomach is already pounding.
