It’s because it’s a wound caused by him. Although it wouldn’t scar, it was true that he felt sorry.

“I’ve heard you’ve improved a lot.”

“Now I want to go back to my palace.”

“No, you still need more treatment.”

“It’s too stuffy here.”

“Are you feeling very stuffy?”

“Yes. Allow me.”

Michael sighed.

Lately, he wondered if he had been listening to her requests too often, but he allowed it.

“I see. Let’s do that.”

“Thank you.”

Priscilla asked implicitly.

“What has Your Majesty gained from this?”

“I got something very big. I’m sorry I ruined your installation ceremony.”

“I’ve been waiting for you to say sorry, but you’re doing it now.”

Michael shut up.

“Sooner or later you will be given a lot of authority.”

“Authority?”

“Yes.”

“I’m already burdened.”

“Since you have officially become my wife, isn’t it natural to take charge of the Imperial household?”

Oh, her head was starting to hurt.

Considering that there would be more work to be done.

“You’ll have to take good care of yourself until then.”

“Yes, I should.”

“Tell the ladies-in-waiting to prepare for your return.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty.”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Sure.”

When Michael went out, Priscilla stretched loudly.

Now she could go back to the palace.

The Emperor’s Palace was suffocating.

Her confinement would be relieved when she returned to Lilith Palace.

“I miss Heidi, too, and I miss the tea I used to drink while looking at the pond at Lilith Palace.”

When she thought about it, she felt like she had been through a lot.

Moreover, she didn’t know she would manage to survive this well as Priscilla.

“By the way, it’s ironic.”

At first, she wondered how she would live, but once she got used to it, it was worth living.

“As expected, are people animals of adaptation?”

That seemed to be right.

And above all, it’s about Michael.

The first thought she had when the chandelier fell was that Michael might die.

As soon as she felt that way, her body moved.

She thought she would never have such feelings again, but it seems like an unfortunate aspect of fate has arisen.

She thought she’d have to sort her mind when she went back to Lilith Palace.

Michael wouldn’t think of her differently.

He only used her.

“I’m going to ask him to let me go after being used properly.”

When the value of her use disappeared, Michael may release her.

There was still hope.

Michael called Eren.

It was to finish the case of the Bugatti Kingdom.

To send Eren as a messenger to the Bugatti Kingdom.

“Did you call, Your Majesty?”

“Eren, there is something you must do.”

“Please speak.”

“You should bring this edict to the Bugatti Kingdom.”

“To the Bugatti Kingdom?”

“Yes.”

“May I ask you what the written notice is about?”

Michael spoke with a casual look.

“It is about asking the Bugatti Kingdom to pay for Princess Jestina’s crime of trying to assassinate me.”

Eren’s eyes grew bigger.

“So, is it Princess Jestina’s fault that the chandelier crashed?”

“Yes, she did it.”

Eren’s fists tightened.

He was the first to move when the chandelier fell.

However, he had no choice but to stop due to Priscilla’s subsequent actions.

Priscilla pushed Michael.

It was not thought-provoked, but a bodily reaction.

As a result, the chandelier hit Priscilla.

Fortunately, she escaped quickly and suffered a minor injury.

If Priscilla had not escaped, she would have died on the spot.

It was a terrible thing to think about.

“All right. I’ll be back.”

“Please.”

Eren, who received the edict, immediately headed to the Bugatti Kingdom with his entourage and some subjects.

~~~~

Priscilla returned to Lilith Palace.

The only difference from the past was that one’s status has increased and there are more things to do.

She herself was just an extra, but at some point she stopped being an extra.

She was just trying to live quietly and get her freedom when the time came, but it got twisted like crazy.

“Are you happy to come back to the Lilith Palace?”

“Oh, I love it.”

“Why? I would prefer a space with His Majesty the Emperor.”

Priscilla looked at Rien with a face that suggested she would listen to any bizarre nonsense.

Yeah, it could have been the case if he was a real loving husband.

But the Emperor and her weren’t in that kind of relationship.

Of course, Rien didn’t know that, so it was a natural reaction.

Not being able to tell anyone comfortably, Priscilla was a little frustrated.

“Anyway, it’s good to be back.”

Priscilla threw herself into bed.

Then Rien’s face was stained with anxiety.

“You haven’t recovered yet…”

“Oops…”

It hurt. At Priscilla’s moaning, Rien quickly came over and supported her.

“Be careful.”

“Sorry, I forgot.”

“Let me see.”

Rien carefully examined her back.

“Fortunately, the wound didn’t burst.”

“Really? But it’s a bit painful.”

“Shall I call a doctor?”

“No, I think a cup of tea made by Rien would be better?”

Rien let out a devastated laugh.

“You really can’t be stopped, can you?”

Priscilla stuck out her tongue.

“Now you know, make me some tea.”

“Okay, hold on.”

As Rien left, Priscilla carefully fell back into bed.

But she felt something behind her back and reached for it.

“Letter?”

Behind her back was a letter.

When she checked, the name Eren was written on it.

“Eren sent it.”

Priscilla opened the envelope and checked. The content was like this.

[Dear lovely sister.

Sister, I am going to the Bugatti Kingdom as an envoy under the orders of His Majesty.

I think I’ll leave without seeing your face, so I’m writing instead.

I’m worried because you seem to have lost a lot of blood during the installation ceremony.

I’m also concerned whether there will be any scars on your back, but please make sure to receive proper treatment.

I’ll check when I get back.

I’m sorry that I can’t leave after seeing you, but I’ll be back as soon as I finish my work.

Eat well, rest well, and take care of your health.

And Heidi was left to a maid named Lili.

Please take good care of Heidi.

Then, bye.]

Since the letter was filled with nothing but concerns for her, Priscilla felt uneasy.

Since Eren was there, everyone must have seen it.

“You must have worried a lot.”

His feelings in the letter touched Priscilla warmly.

“By the way, the Bugatti Kingdom…”

Since he mentioned going as an envoy, it was evident that Michael had begun something related to Jestina.

“If you started working, shouldn’t you tell me?”

That’s so mean.

It seems like you’re doing too much by using everything available and not sharing information.

The problem is what you want from that person in the first place.

“Lady Priscilla, I brought you tea.”

Rien came in with tea.

“Thank you, Rien.”

“Now, drink quickly before it gets cold.”

Priscilla nodded and took a sip of tea.

“Well, as expected, the tea made by Rien is the best.”

“Your praise is too much.”

“It’s true. By the way, what is Lili doing?”

“She is taking care of the cat’s meal.”

“That’s great. I missed Heidi, so I should go see her.”

Priscilla and Rien headed to Heidi’s place.

When permission was given to raise her, Priscilla decorated a room where Heidi could stay.

The room was filled with a wooden cat tower, as well as a comfortable cushion and Heidi’s toys.

This was only Heidi’s space.

“Heidi, are you eating?”

Meow!

Heidi looked at Priscilla with a flick of her tongue and ate.

Priscilla waited for Heidi to finish her meal.

Heidi emptied the bowl, and Lili cleared it.

Only then did Heidi jump into Priscilla’s arms and rub her face.

“I’m sorry, I’m so late.”

Meow, meow.

“Heidi is really nice.”

Priscilla kissed Heidi on the face.

“Heidi, shall we go for a walk?”

Heidi meowed, saying that she liked it.

Priscilla came out into the garden with Heidi.

Heidi was happy running around the grass.

The walk with Heidi ended only after sunset.

~~~~

The Bugatti Kingdom was a rich country with as much wealth as the Frances Empire.

Perhaps that’s why the palace was also magnificent.

Starting with a huge dome made of gold, the spacious royal palace was plastered with gold, drawing admiration from viewers.

There was an untimely storm.

This was because he heard that the envoy of the Frances Empire departed with the Emperor’s imperial edict.

The King summoned the Crown Prince to consult.

“The Empire is sending an envoy.”

“I’ve heard.”

“Yes, what do you think it’s about?”

Prince Nav, the Crown Prince, couldn’t easily open his mouth.

It was because it was related to Jestina.

The King seemed to have guessed.

“Have you heard from the child these days?”

“Yes, Father.”

“Yes, how has she been? I heard that the Princess of the Duchy of Oren had become a queen.”

“Did father have any idea?”

“She couldn’t have been quiet, given the child’s disposition.”
