"Ahahaha!"

The Empress laughed heartily.

"After all, she is my daughter. Isn't that so, Marquis Mercy!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Okay. There's no way my daughter wouldn't be able to beat that lowly dancer's daughter."

For Amelia's first social debut, it was very successful. The Empress smiled with satisfaction.

"Please, Marquis, take care of the Princess. It's her first time in the social world, so she's going to be very awkward."

While laughter was blooming in the Empress's palace, the Queen's palace was full of sorrow.

"Teresa, don't do that, just get up and take a sip of water."

"Your Majesty..."

After Prince Cassil's scandal, Theresa suffered from anxiety. Then, when she heard of the humiliation that Lilienne had suffered, she fainted once again.

"It's because I'm not good at it."

Tears fell from Theresa's eyes.

"If I had been a woman worthy of His Majesty, neither Cassil nor Lilienne would have been so ignored."

The Emperor's face darkened. However, he was too hasty to comfort her.

Because it was true.

"Argon, that's why he gave up his throne long ago. Because he knows it won't work. He already knows that since he has a lowly mother, he cannot inherit the throne, so he must be leaving."

"Don't say that."

"Hu hu hu, my poor children."

After crying for a long time, Theresa eventually fainted again. The Emperor nursed her through the night and returned to his office in the morning.

How did this happen?

Not long ago, the situation wasn't this bad. Lilienne reigned as the flower of society. Cassil was to return once his exile was over.

'Kanna Valentino.'

It's hard to believe, but she was at the center of everything. The woman cured Amelia's skin disease, changed the course of her social life, and pushed Cassil to the brink, causing him to lose his wrist.

The Emperor was deep in thought. Then he suddenly found a letter on the table.

It was a letter from Orsini Addis.

***

One day when peaceful days continued. The news hit the mansion like a lightning bolt.

"What?"

Kanna, who was making medicine using magic stones in an underground laboratory, almost dropped the magic core containing condensed magic power.

"Leah, what did you say just now?"

"Orsini..."

Leah carefully concluded her words while observing Kanna's thoughts.

"They say Orsini has gone missing."

***

Orsini was, as always, handling matters related to the Black Fog.

The most recent destination was Paleon Island. A Black Fog appeared there and led the knights away.

In the meantime, letters were sent periodically to report the situation.

<The knights were wiped out.>
