Chapter 60

“Wait, Lucy, she’s not only the most adorable and happiest in our country – she’s the best in the universe.”

“Yes indeed, our young master is very smart.”

Wyndert cut off Lucy’s words and said those words with a serious face, but the content of what he said was so embarrassing I felt my face start burning.

But, preparing things more luxurious than Azuela, is it possible? Though I was a little confused if it was possible, I kept my mouth shut because I was the only one thrown off by this conversation.

I somehow felt reassured that two of the people I love will be coming with me. It felt like rather than entering the enemy’s territory alone I will feel at ease, like wearing strong armor.

‘That’s right, everyone in the Imperial Palace is an enemy.’

And… I’m sure I will meet Azuela there. Even if the Emperor was the one who really called for me, I don’t want to look shabby compared to Azuela.

“I will never lose!”

As I shouted my words, Miya meowed in my arms as if she knew what I felt, like she was cheering for me. Her bountifully fluffy tail flicked up and down on my forearm as if stroking me.

“I think Miya wants to support you too.”

Wyndert stretched out his hand to pet Miya’s head but she showed her teeth so he didn’t have any choice but to retract his hand.

‘They looked to be getting better at first.’

It seems like Miya doesn’t want to be friends with anyone but me…… I put my arms around her and hugged her.

“Are you planning on taking the cat too?”

“Rather than letting it stay in the Grand Duchy, I will bring it with me to the Imperial Palace, because she should be helpful.”

Miya and I became very good friends after I brought her home, but I didn’t forget the fact that she was a hidden card of the Empress and Azuela. For that reason, I was thinking of sending her to the palace sooner or later – so Azuela can fall for my tricks.

Of course, if a monster they thought would appear in the Grand Duchy appeared inside the Imperial Palace, that would be very embarrassing. When someone is embarrassed, it’s very easy to make some mistakes so I want to watch as Azuela’s facade cracks.

What will Azuela’s reaction be when she sees this child (cat)? Will she feel guilty?

‘I will make sure to make you feel like it was a mistake to lay your hand on us.’

While looking at Miya’s bright eyes, I made an oath.

For the first time we will meet each other, I will never lose to her.

“Our, our young lady… ?”

“Are you really surprised?”

Nina and Franc looked around as they murmured so that Shuelina, who was taking a nap, could have a good sleep.

The young lady they were serving could be an Imperial Princess, not just a simple orphan. It was absolutely unbelievable. They couldn’t even bring themselves to utter the words ‘Imperial Princess’ so they just shut their mouths.

“…… I’m glad she didn’t go.”

Nina muttered a little.

They thought she was an orphan but her family was unexpectedly still alive – he (the Crown Prince Lucas) even came himself to visit the house that adopted her.
