“We will soon arrive at the empire’s capital.”
Luana’s eyes sparkled at the Duke’s words. Although she was born a princess, she lived only in the abandoned palace. It was only an old castle to see nature. She could not help but wonder about the capital of the empire, which was so splendid.
“Wow!”
Luana clung to the window and looked out. As she passed through the huge gate, the well-maintained wide streets and busy streets caught her eye. Even the decorated objects passed through the sparkling glass windows, catching her attention.
‘Now I feel reincarnated in a fantasy novel.’
Luana grinned.
“Long live the empire!”
“Welcome!”
Petals and people’s cheers fell on the street where the carriages ran. It was a tragedy for some, comedy for them. It was ironic to think so, but Luana decided to enjoy the present for now.
And finally, the capital of the empire. She arrived at the Emperor’s Castle at its deepest point.
Luana saw Ingrid again, which she had never seen during her long journey. She was forced to change her clothes by the maids, yet she was still beautiful even though she was emaciated.
“Are you okay?”
A low voice asked Luana. How much meaning does that short word have? Ingrid, whose kingdom collapsed, lost her parents and was finally forced to be taken away. Luana could only guess what it would be like.
So she couldn’t answer.
It was because she felt like she was deceiving Ingrid, even if it was okay. Luana simply stood awkwardly alongside Ingrid and awaited her meeting with the Emperor.
“Once again, don’t fall for him.”
The Duke said so and entered first. Then, Luana and Ingrid entered at intervals. Even in such a situation, Ingrid stepped forward confidently, looking like a king. Somehow Luana felt a little sorry for her.
Luana took a deep breath and followed in the footsteps of Ingrid. As they walked down the red road and reached the end, the Emperor, sitting on the high throne, said.
“Welcome to the Empire.”
The Emperor’s voice beat in the ear.
‘Ahh!’
It was such a seductive voice that it tickled Luana’s ears. There was a distinct difference from the harsh and bizarre voice of the Duke. Luana barely resisted the desire to rub her ear and bowed her head. Although she was curious about the emperor’s face, her life was more important to her. But unlike Luana, Ingrid did not bow.
“That’s the word that comes out of your mouth.”
Ingrid said in a frosty voice.
“It’s not something I can talk about.”
The voice against him is still relaxed. At first glance, Ingrid’s hand grabbed her skirt. She was holding it so tightly that her knuckles turned white.
“It’s not something you can’t talk about? How can you say that?”
“If you had followed what I said earlier, there would have been no problem.”
“Is that what you really talk about?”
“But?”
“Even a dog barking would be better than your words!”
