We eventually agreed to visit Yeri.
‘It is one of the cities where news of the border reached the fastest. Even if it is ruined, it will be worth a look.’
‘Yes, Sir John.’
‘Maybe it will be a good opportunity to check the reality of the new country.’
Sir Elizabeth helped in a whisper. The group nodded their heads sullenly.
‘I can’t keep fighting in the rain like this. The plains will also be busy with repairs and repairs for the time being.’
And said the prince. This meant that there was no possibility that the party would lag behind the military.
The fact that we made the Yeri our first target was a fact that the military service members already knew.
It was before the first letter to His Majesty the Emperor, so it was better to proceed with everything as planned.
Maybe they could see the situation there and decide their next destination.
Since Prince Sedric finally approved the operation, we decided to rest immediately.
After eating warm food, bathing in hot water, and discussing necessary discussions, the tension was finally relieved.
My eyes suddenly became blurry. I can’t even remember how I did it.
Canael and I yawned nonstop.
“Good night, dear guests.”
“See you tomorrow.”
“Good night, Neilie. Mr. Toby.”
“Sleep well, John.”
The apothecary couple smiled softly, turned off all the lights, and went downstairs.
A small fireplace in the attic creaked peacefully.

Outside, the rain was constantly knocking on the window.
It felt like I was determined and turned on ASMR.
It was strange that I couldn’t sleep because there was even a subtle herbal scent floating around.
It was already close to one in the morning.
– quiver
“Shall we sleep together? It’s small, is it okay?”
-dream
“Yeah, my brother is fine.”
As I grabbed the blanket, Demi came up to the bed and dug into my arms.
The prince and Ga-in were seated on the beds at either end of the attic.
They each decided to sleep with Leah and Perry.
Dungshim and Tite put a fluffy basket on the side table and slept separately.
Seeing the wren squawking all the time, I burst into laughter.
Sir John and Sir Elizabeth seemed to have already closed their eyes.
After checking the appearance of the two of them, I laid my head down on the pillow as if collapsed.
A large, round attic window looked down on us at an angle.
– aaah
-Tododog, Tododog
When will the rain stop?
– Boss Rock, Boss Rock
“My lord.”
Then, in the bed next to me, Canael whispered to me.
The child was lying on the edge of the bed, facing this side.
“yes?”
“By the way, I forgot. I’m going to give it to you now in case you keep forgetting it.”
A boy with a lot of sleep around his eyes handed me a book.
A familiar title caught my eye in the twilight.
Essay collection, ＜The Lord has given me>.
“Huh, this…”
Written by Didier Ermick. It was the pen name of Benjamin.
“Yes, Benjamin sent it as a gift to the king. Here’s the favorite version that came out this time. It was published in a limited edition of 3,000, but you said it was number 0000.”
“Wow. thank you!”
I smiled broadly and swiped the cover of the book.
It seemed to run away from sleep for a moment at the special 0, which is nowhere else in the world.
Seeing the bindings shimmering with all kinds of decorations on sturdy hardcover bindings made my heart flutter with thoughts of the past.
I wondered why Benjamin had sent me this book. That was already in June of last year.
‘Next time, please sign the essay book.’
‘I will, my prince.’
That day remains a very vivid memory.
Because it was the first day I met Eva at the confessional in the Imperial Palace.
A curly-haired little princess who sprinkled cool water on me, was stopped by Demi, and didn’t know what to do in a panic.
Early summer when we didn’t know anything yet.
“…you must have forgotten what you said back then.”
“sure. I remember too.”
The boy smiled bashfully and changed the pillow.
Demi sniffed the book and hugged her softly, waving her tail.
It seemed to smell of Benjamin. I patted the cover and smiled faintly.
I really like the friends I go with, but I also miss my friends in the Yellow Capital.
Maybe just like my family.
“How is Eva? Joan?”
I asked again a question I asked a few days ago. Was it because I was too sleepy?
“Both of you are in good health. In particular, Little Duke is very, very busy. These days, it is enjoying great popularity in the social circle of the zodiac. Everywhere they go, young Confucius flocks, and after being bitten, they only focus on raising money for the military…”
A soft voice whispered to be heard.
Thank you for always kindly answering my repeated questions.
I closed my eyes and tried not to fall asleep.
“Laurence and Agnes? Bamtolido too…”
“The chestnuts are growing rapidly, maybe next spring… I might carry Agnes with me. Lawrence was ordered by the court lord… They bake free bread for children outside the Imperial Palace…”
‘They fought over raisins…’ Soon, Canael’s voice became hazy.
Sentences were sparsely cut off, and the pronunciation began to be slurred. The corners of his lips rose sharply.
Demi had long since left for dreamland. last time i asked
“Pierre?”
“Pierre, that idiot…”
The boy mumbled.
“·················ogue.”
“·················ogue.”
And the attic was quiet.

Occasionally a small breath and the noise of nature could only reach my earlobe.
I closed my eyes, hugging the precious warmth.
I fell asleep so dark.
*
– Kwagwagwang!
Startle! I woke up to the sound of thunder hitting my ears.
‘Cuckoo!’ Demi woke up at the same time, and her front paws were pounding in surprise.
The whole thing in front of me was blue and dark.
However, it was not early in the morning, given the feeling of having slept well for a long time.
Even though it was morning, it was raining outside.
I turned on the stretch and got my back up. Demi followed me along.
The manastone glasses that cover the color of the eyes—the ones in the Duhem Rose color—are probably not needed today, so I left them alone.
First, I soothed my throat that had been locked with the lukewarm water of the night.
After giving Demi water, he put on his slippers.
“I don’t know if this is a flood or not.”
-Chew…
Leah woke up around that time and rolled around. I saw that the prince’s bed was empty.
He’s a guy who wakes up like dawn, so Leah seems to have put her in my bed and left first.
The two futons on the floor were also neatly arranged.
Sir Elizabeth and Sir John have already woken up. Mr. Gain-
“Kurer….”
uhm.
After kicking off all the bedding, she fell asleep on her stomach.
It looked like half of her pink hair had gone into her mouth.
I wanted to suffocate like that, so I carefully pulled out my hair and put the blanket back on.
Perry was sleeping next to her with her legs stretched out.
It’s okay, teachers. Long live the independence of Korea.
– Beep beep, beep beep
“I know. I think it will be difficult to leave today. Rather, we should be concerned about the surrounding flood damage.”
He had a breath-taking conversation with the courageous, and greeted Tite, who was playing alone while waving her fins.
Shall we bring breakfast and eat with Ga-in?
Are you all meditating by now? Or Sir John PT?
“Black…….”
Then, there was a strange noise next to me. I looked back at the treasure troves.
– Beep?
– Kuu?
Then the abyss looks into me, it’s not like this.
“Ugh…”
“Where am I coming from?”
who is crying I frantically looked left and right. Fortunately, the situation did not last long.
It was because the blanket on the bed next to it was inflated like an igloo.
“Canael?”
“Cheong.”
It wasn’t just an empty duvet pile!
“Black, sniff…….”
“Canael, why are you doing this? Are you sick?”
‘Let’s see your face.’ In an instant, my heart raced. I forgot about hunger and flipped on the blanket.
Then the boy squirmed and curled up even more. Anxiety prevailed.
Canael was a little boy who entered the palace as a servant as soon as he became an adult.
He had never seen anything rough or rough, so it must have been unreasonable to leave the Imperial Palace.
There, he was homeless for three days and was hit by cold rain late at night.
It was clear that the tension was relieved and he had severe body aches. I hurriedly looked around the treasure troves.
“Cheer up, go down and get the bosses. You’re an apothecary, so you probably know more than I do.”
– Beep!
“Demi, can you give Tite my towel over there? I want you to wet it with water.”
– Kyeung!
“Lea, let’s walk on the blanket with me. Start with the tenth Canaelite.”
– Kiwoong!
“okay. I may have to use my healing powers.”
We move in unison—
-Food Duck!
“Hey, I’m fine! My lord, I’m not sick…!”
Canael, who became a pizza buns, shook off the blanket and got up. We rolled our eyes and opened them.
‘Beep?’ The courageous man who flew up to the stairs turned round and round.
I gasped in surprise.
“Oh my God, why are you crying if you’re not sick? Your cheeks are red too.”
“Hey, it really is. That body is fine…”
Let’s take some heat. He quickly put a hand on his forehead.
It was hot in the duvet, but it was definitely not a fever when I was sick.
I immediately moved on to the next step.
“Neck. Isn’t it swollen now? Would you like to open your mouth?”
“Your neck is nice too. Not that, my heart…”
“What?”
heart? Is this serious?!
“It was a big deal. Tux, come down and pick up an adult.”
– sprain
Adult here meant Sir Johann Haines.
“Sir Haines, absolutely not…!”
Then the boy exclaimed with a loud thump in his chest.
The air was half as loud as it had been, but I couldn’t stop hearing those desperate words anyway.
In the end, the courageous spirit that circled the attic was scattered all around me.
Maybe something happened in the morning? When I woke up in the morning, I wondered about last night.
I lowered my voice as much as possible.
“Canael, can you calm down and explain? please. I’m afraid you’ll be wrong I’m still young and my heart hurts…”
“restroom······. On my way… I saw it.あ.”
“yes? what?”
“Actually, I always thought it was strange……. Georges, the rimless wonder…”
The face of the boy who mentioned his fiancé was clouded. The fingertips that gripped her chest were pale.
For a moment, it felt like my heart was pounding.
no! Jeong Eun-seo!
“Sorry. I’m really sorry. I should have told you in advance, but I couldn’t find the right time…”
“no. A story that the king can tell… How could you say such a thing? It’s not the king’s fault, but there was nothing the king could do, black…”
Big golden eyes, like chicken dung, were dripping with tears.
Demi went back and forth restlessly.
I tried my best to remain calm as I watched my dear brother’s crying face.
The match suffered as soon as I woke up in the morning was spectacular, but if I had to deal with it properly, I would be able to minimize Canael’s wounds.
Hold on tight, Jesse Jung. Canael had already noticed that his fiancée had lost his memory.
So from now on, be careful. To reduce the impact of the child…
“That’s right, the last time Sir Elizabeth was hurt….”
“Somehow, black. The way he treated me was strangely cold……”
“right. It could have felt that way. I understand a hundred times.”
I wiped the boy’s cheek with the towel Demi had brought.
“Things you wouldn’t normally say, black. I did. When we ate, he didn’t ask me for a taste. But hopefully it is… then······.”
“yes. you would be very surprised In fact, it was a great sadness for us as well. So I’m thinking about how to tell you this news…”
“No, I wish I didn’t know, bu. Better not to know!”
Canael’s voice was distorted. I gently patted the boy’s shoulder.
are you okay. If you’re too surprised, you might get a reaction like this—
“How could you fall in love with Lord Haines over me?”
flash!
-Kurreung, Kwagwang!
“Collock! Collok! Cool cool! Whoops!”
I think I’m going to die.
I grabbed my neck and rolled over on the bed in extreme agony.
Aemuldanji also laid down next to me and showed a violent reaction of rejection.

Outside the window, a terrible thunderstorm was beating the sky.
However, in the agony of the sharp first broken heart (?), Canael did not have the spirit to look after us.
He uttered terrifying words like a boy whispered!
“I saw with my own two eyes. Lord Haines was stripped of his shirt, and Georges touched his breast!”
“Wow, crazy.”
evil! Ga-in, who had been scattered from behind, suddenly appeared.
I jumped up from my seat and rolled back into bed.
His blue-grey eyes were burning hotter than ever—more truly than ever.
The above-mentioned cheeks trembled slightly. Perry, who came along with him, was also shaking his beard.
Both were confused as to whether they were angry or excited.
“Is this true? My friend is now dating a married man who is 9 years older than a pure man who is 8 years younger than him, you mean? Uprising, uproar, in the midst of war? Does that guy have a kid that’s the size of a Yerang?”
Stop the crappy novels!
Besides, Harit and Canael aren’t the same age, there’s absolutely no way that’s going to happen…
uh?
“Canael, Kolok! Really? Truly Sir Elizabeth and Sir John…”
“yes. what i saw Not only the chest, but also the back was touched. It’s dark and there’s only one light on… While dating me for a long time… I’ve liked it since I was six years old, black…”
“What are you talking about?”
“100 million!”
You either learn how to pretend to be really popular!
I flipped over and got up again like a dwarf.
The prince was walking into the attic with a towel on his half-wet hair.
Confusion and annoyance were still evident in his well-stained eyes.
He looked like he couldn’t understand why there was such an uproar while he was away.
– Chia!
Yes, you just came!
“Prince, it is said that Sir Elizabeth and Sir John met separately at dawn.”
“Your voice is too low.”
“It is an agenda that needs to be said small, so please speak small as well. Have you witnessed anything? The Prince usually gets up before sunrise.”
Then the man wrinkled his eyebrows slightly.
He took off the towel and wiped his cheek.
“… the two of them came in when they woke up.”
“OMG.”
“The teacher was showing his upper body.”
“Ugh.”
“Is that important?”
It’s important, you bastard! Canael and I were really contemplating.
Leah and Perry clinged to him hurriedly.
I meant that you should get into bed soon too!
